Suarez sets title blueprint

Liverpool striker Luis Suarez believes the club have a chance of being title contenders.

That is if the form of the final five months of the last campaign can be reproduced over a whole season.
The Reds claimed 34 points from 18 Barclays Premier League matches after Kenny Dalglish replaced Roy Hodgson as manager in early January.
If that points-to-matches ratio had been produced from the beginning of the season Liverpool would have finished with the same tally (71) as second-placed Chelsea.

"I think the form we showed over the second half of the season bodes well," said Suarez - a £22.8m January signing from Ajax.
"We've been playing well and I think we've been getting into the type of form that we know we'll have to keep up for a whole season if we want to be title contenders.
"This is something we're optimistic about for next season and if we can hit the ground running and maintain the good form then I think we've got a good chance of doing well."
