00:00 Yeah, Luis brought that South American mentality.
00:03 He didn't care about anything but football and scoring goals.
00:08 When you hit the ground running like he did,
00:10 and scoring the goals that he did,
00:12 that one season where you could close your legs,
00:15 he would still nutmeg you.
00:17 He was just phenomenal.
00:18 You see what Suarez did this year in Brazil,
00:22 that Brazil is not considered a weak league.
00:26 Suarez scored almost 30 goals and 50 assists,
00:30 something like that, and he's still very good.
00:34 Yeah, it's crazy.
00:35 He's a legend at three different clubs.
00:37 He's a legend at Ajax, a legend at Liverpool,
00:40 and then he's the second highest goalscorer ever,
00:42 I think, in Barcelona.
00:43 So, yeah, I think that team, that's what they needed.
00:50 They just needed a natural goalscorer.
00:53 What he brought to Liverpool,
00:55 what he brought to the Premier League,
00:56 and then kids were looking up to him,
00:58 wanting to be playing like him.
00:59 Obviously, things happened that we're not going to talk about,
01:02 but when you're talking about football,
01:04 he was phenomenal.
01:06 I know sometimes it went maybe a bit over the edge,
01:09 but I think he's a legend.
01:12 He's one of the greatest number nines of the last 20, 30 years,
01:16 and he will forever be a legend at Barcelona.
