Luis Suarez credits Kop supporters for his incredible form
LUIS SUAREZ has revealed the faith of Liverpools fans is behind his incredible form.
The striker smashed a double against Tottenham on Sunday, taking his tally for the season to 17 goals in just 11 matches.
In 2011, he was banned for eight matches after racially abusing Manchester Uniteds Patrice Evra.
He spent the first six games of the current campaign on the sidelines as he completed his 10-match suspension for biting Branislav Ivanovic in April.
But after a summer in which he told Liverpool he wanted to leave the club, Suarez feels he is now back on track.
The Urguayan was last night named the Football Supporters Federations Player of the Year.
He said: After so many difficult moments for me I was able to win the supporters back and that was unbelievable when I came back to play.
They helped me, and that was important for me, for my confidence, and for my family, because they are together with me in this.
Its very special for me the award because my hard work on the pitch is recognised.
Everybody knows about my problems and my difficult year, but after that I forgot everything and have been able to get back on the pitch.
Liverpool are starting to reach their potential and we can play our best on the pitch.
Its very important that we stay together, we keep going, this is very important.
If Liverpool dont have these players I cannot continue my level, because its too much.
They know I am important, so they try everything to stay together, thats important for me, but its more important for the club.
Suarez will face a host of Liverpool team-mates when his Uruguay side take on England in World Cup 2014 in Brazil.
After the draw, Suarez revealed Steven Gerrard texted joking that England were lucky to face Uruguay.
But he said: Before the draw I hoped we would not face England.
But when it said we would face England it was unbelievable for me.
Stevie sent a message to me saying we are so lucky, and we were laughing because its so funny.
But now we are concentrating on the league and Liverpool.
I think its more difficult at the World Cup, it will be very, very difficult.
Italy, Uruguay, England: they all have good players.
But I think in the World Cup if you want to win, then in every game you must concentrate, and you must focus against every country.
