Liverpool boss Rodgers happy to see Suarez on scoresheet

Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers was delighted with goal scorer Luis Suarez after their 1-1 draw at Sunderland.

Suarez's well-taken goal was his third of the season so far - and Rodgers was delighted with his contribution, as well as the rest of his players.

He said: "Luis has been brilliant for me. We played just around the corner and changed his position slightly for the first hour or so, so he could come in from the left side and play in that space between the centre-back and full-back - and I thought he did it very well.

"We tried to get him involved a wee bit more in the final 30 minutes. Across the board we looked a real threat tonight. Luis - along with a lot of the other guys - was exceptional."
