Ex-Reds Steve McManaman thinks Liverpool should sell Luis Suarez

Chelsea defender Branislav Ivanovic last week and McManaman strongly believes his former club will cash in on him in the transfer window.

“I don’t expect him to be at Liverpool next season,” the ex-England winger said on ESPN. “I think they (Liverpool) are going to move him on.

“If they can get the money for him they will sell him.

McManaman, like every football supporter, strongly believes that Suarez is a world-class player, but said if he misses games he’s no good to the team.

“For me it’s not value for money if he’s missing 20 games and it’s not fair to the fans.”

Another former Liverpool player, Mark Lawrenson also thinks the Uruguay international needs to be on the pitch or its pointless keeping him.

“Why wouldn’t you want to keep him? But each time he is banned the club is losing a world-class player,” Lawrenson said on BBC Sports. “If he keeps missing games then Liverpool won’t get in the top four which is where they want to be.

“The club should be doing something to help him. He has embarrassed the club and they’re getting headlines for all the wrong reasons.”
