Jamie Carragher Insists Luis Suarez Was the Reason Liverpool Didn't Win Premier League in 2013/14

Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher believes that Luis Suarez cost the Reds the Premier League title in 2013/14 due to the striker being banned for six matches at the start of the season for biting Branislav Ivanovic.

Suarez joined the Anfield side in January 2011 and went on to make 110 league appearances for the club, notching an impressive 69 goals in that time. Most notably, the Uruguayan bagged 31 goals from 33 matches in the 2013/14 season and was voted PFA Player of the Year and Football Writers' Association Player of the Year.

The striker's ruthlessness in front of goal was crucial to Liverpool's efforts to claim the title in 2013/14, but fell marginally short.
