Liverpool captain Gerrard: Suarez absolute genius

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has declared teammate Luis Suarez a "genius".

Suarez was back amongst the goals in victory over Southampton.

"It was a huge win for us and Luis showed once again that he's an absolute genius," Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo.

"People had been talking about him going five games without a goal but his contribution to the team has never wavered.

"He is very unselfish. At times he's been asked to play in a wider role and he has shown what a great team player he is.

"Even when he wasn't scoring, he was still terrorising defenders and creating goals for us.

"It was a great way for him to celebrate 100 league games for the club. His record is phenomenal."
