Chelsea 1-1 Liverpool – Premier League – 11th November 2012

Those loveable rogues/poor little victims/racist scum (delete according to your club affiliation) John Terry and Luis Suarez took centre stage at Stamford Bridge on Sunday, with the two controversial stars both getting on the scoresheet in what was a rather poor game overall.

The home side enjoyed much more of the ball but failed to hurt the Reds too often although it was JT, back from his four-match suspension, who opened the scoring on 20 minutes, heading home after some poor Liverpool defending.

Oscar, Juan Mata and Fernando Torres all had chances to increase the Blues’ lead while before the end of the first-half, goal-hero Terry had to be stretchered off with what looked like a serious ligament injury after Suarez fell onto the defender’s leg, which buckled under the weight of the player.

After the break, the home side continued to attack but their failure to make the most of their dominance would come back to haunt them when, with 17 minutes to go, Suarez headed home from close-range to level the scores.

Both sides pressed for the winner but the game ultimately ended all square. The result sees the Blues fail to regain the top spot from Manchester United while Liverpool find themselves in 13th.

Oh, and one final point, apart from Lionel Messi and Cristiano Ronaldo, is there a better player around right now than Luis Suarez?

    wow crazy last statement. liverpool play everything through him. xavi, iniesta, xavi alonso, mata, van persie, rooney, augero, silva to name but a few who are better. don’t get me wrong he is very good and most teams would kill for him but dont try to put him 3rd in the world. maybe next week you can rewrite this about javier hernandez.

    dunno if you’ve seen this but its pretty hilarious. Suarez turns around to celebrate with his team mates only to realize that no one is there http://img5.imageshack.us/img5/2883/1352655651923.gif

    Terry had better hope he doesn’t get a Black surgeon.

    I love how you do photos and highlights. Exactly what any soccer nerd wants from a match. Keep up the good work.

    Rvp, rooney, aguero etc., all have a pretty good support to put goals ready on their plate. Not saying thats how they get all their goals, but a lot of the goals scored by them are due to the amazing assists. But suarez’s almost all goals have 90% him working for it, unlike others who in most cases have to only finish it. Looking from this point, the way suarez has got to the most goals scored in the premier league, immediately elevates his position from the rest.

    If you take out Suarez’ goals and assists, Liverpool are bottom with two points. He’s pretty important to them.
