Dalglish welcomes Suarez's return

by Setanta Staff , 03 February 2012 Dalglish welcomes striker's return

Liverpool boss Kenny Dalglish has expressed his delight at having striker Luis Suarez available again after his eight-match suspension.


The Uruguay international was forced to serve an extended ban after being found guilty of racially abusing Patrice Evra's during a Premier League match against Manchester United.

Dalglish however, can now call on his scoring talents once more although he admits that Suarez could start on the bench at home to Spurs on Monday due to his lack of recent action.

"It is great for everybody that we have Luis back in the squad," said the Reds boss. "He's been back training a couple of weeks now and he's stayed pretty fit. It is fantastic for us to have him available.

"There is a lot to be taken into consideration: the fact he's not played for over a month and more importantly how well the other players have done in his absence.

"But it is good for us - and Steven [Gerrard] will be back so we should be pretty strong."
