UCL: Suarez Behaved Like A Rat - Aldridge


UCL:
Suarez Behaved Like A Rat - Aldridge By: Francis Joseph Luis Suarez “behaved like a rat” during a Champions League reunion with Liverpool, says John Aldridge, with the Barcelona striker’s antics at Camp Nou considered to be “not acceptable”. A former Anfield favourite opened his European goal account for 2018-19 during a meeting with familiar faces in Catalunya. The Uruguayan had admitted prior to the first leg of a semi-final showdown that he intended to celebrate if finding the target . Aldridge has no issue with a frontman revelling in the emotion of hitting the net but feels a man with strong ties to Liverpool should have shown more respect in other areas of his game . The ex-Reds star told the Irish Independent : "Suarez behaved like a rat in the Champions League semi-final against Liverpool and it was out of order. "I don’t have any problem with him celebrating his goal against Liverpool. Just because he used to wear a red shirt, it doesn’t mean he has to pretend he is not excited to score a great goal in a massive Champions League game. "What was not acceptable was his antics on and off the ball, as he got into the faces of Liverpool players, fell over any time anyone went near him and tried to get his opponents booked at every opportunity. "He was sneaky, he was nasty and he was everything people used to tell us Suarez was when everyone at Liverpool was trying to defend him."
