On Suarez, best player I've seen for Liverpool. You can be the best without being a legend.
There was a stat going around about top 10 goal scorers in the 2010s. Your usual suspects, Messi and Cristiano, and then a mix of Lewandowski, Ibrahimovic (I think), Suarez, Aguero (maybe?) and a few more - in no particular order after Messi and Cristiano, but Suarez was in the top 5 as I recall.
Then there was another one with assists. Messi is there, as are Ozil, Di Maria and co. There is only one name besides Messi who shares both lists, and that is Suarez (and he was actually in the top 5 I think in assists too!)
Using TransferMarkt, just some stats for key players (these are overall stats including pre-2010):
Goalscorers and the two freaksMessi - 730 games, 634 goals, 285 assists
Cristiano - 850 games, 638 goals, 223 assists (but many of these were pre-2010 which is why he wasn't in that above 2010s assist list - probably just short of it)
Suarez - 611 games, 405 goals, 231 assists (!)
Lewandowski - 587 games, 409 goals, 118 assists
Aguero - 636 games, 372 goals, 119 assists
Ibra - 761 games, 467 goals, 185 assists
PlaymakersOzil - 600 games, 105 goals, 216 assists
Di Maria - 593 games, 141 goals, 214 assists
De Bruyne - 450 games, 103 goals, 173 assists
Basically, Suarez is assisting as much as, or more than, the renowned playmakers are (De Bruyne probably on another level there) and scoring favourably as compared with the top goalscorers not named Messi or Cristiano.
And that doesn't even include Suarez's "dummy" assists - I reckon he's probably racked up 10+ of those for Barca alone, or any penalties he's won that Messi or other Barca penalty taker (why are they all awful?) has invariably failed to convert.
For me, he's head and shoulders the best striker since Il Fenomeno pre-injury, with Lewandowski, Shevchenko, Eto'o, Henry, Aguero and a few others below him.
Here is a separate list with different numbers, but it all points to the same thing - that Messi, Cristiano and Suarez are the only three players since 2001 to appear in probably a top 20 scoring AND assists chart (you'd likely have to get to Ibrahimovic to find another player who would also be in the scoring chart, and he's #14 on the assists list here)
