      Looks a clinical finisher, from that vid, very few scruffy looking goals as well, only concern with me is, a lot of those goals (probably around 15) were a combination of penalties and free kicks, don't think he'll get much of a look in at penalties here, or free kicks. Still if he scores half the amount of goals he scored that season next year, he'd of been a bargain no doubt. :)
      He provided about 15-20 assists a season aswell. ;)

      Could see that from the video too, good few assists alright. I loved how he sent a cross in for his team mate who then scored. So he decides to push him when he's celebrating. Mad b***ard! :laugh:

      Yeah, that's why I'd like to see him being played coming from the right, kind of like an inside forward. Most people might not have known that Suarez is very much capable of putting crosses in from the right when needed. He didn't do it much at Ajax because ever since Huntelaar left they didn't have a proper CF who could head them in, but with Carroll that would be different. Then if we can get a proper winger with width on the left in this summer our forward line will be set. Ofcourse there's other way to play him aswell, will be interesting to see what Kenny will do there.

      I was wondering about this when watching the video because on that he looks like an out and out striker.

      In fact, he looks like he's just as good a finisher as Torres...

      (I know that's a massive statement from watching a video but...)

      He is. Only that he has more of a physical presence and is extremely driven.

      I think you mean in the video you posted? That's because in that season he was played as the CF, after Huntelaar left they had problems replacing him and eventually shifted Suarez to CF. The season before that, from the video I posted,  he was more a freerole forward coming from the right with Huntelaar and Cvitanich as CF, that's how he played this season aswell.

      Old video of when he still played at Groningen, mostly played on the left that season, think he was 20 back then:

      well if he can get close to 10 goals this season, nearly match it with assists, we'll be challenging 4th/5th/6th. The better he does the higher we'll finish imo.

      looking at some of his videos on youtube, he really does like to power his shots from distance. very accurate, but his close range shots are pretty good too :)

      Some great goals in these videos, especially the one at the World Cup. I remember that one, pure class.

      Very excited to see him play

      I've made the mistake of getting excited about a player due to YouTube clips before but there's no denying that he is capable of scoring from pretty much anywhere.

      I'm not basing his ability on YouTube ;) We have all seen him play at some point, or at least heard of his ability. I just need another reason to get excited by the lad! :)

      I really like this signing, the guy knows how to find the back of the net. I don't think he had a season in Europe where he didn't hit double digits in goals which is what we need. I just hope for his sake he doesn't get pushed out wide too much and become another striker playing on the flank like another goal scoring striker from Holland we bought a few years ago :D

      Can't wait to see how Kenny plays in and in what formation.

      Welcome to the club!
