Liverpool legend Aldo backing Suarez for Golden Boot

Liverpool legend John Aldridge hopes to see Luis Suarez win the Premier League Golden Boot.

Aldo wrote in the Liverpool Echo: "I would be delighted to see Luis get himself in a position near the end of the season where he is in with a shot of claiming the golden boot.

"There is no doubt that one of the reasons we haven't won the league for such a long time is because we not had players consistently at the top of the scoring charts.

"I was the last Liverpool player to win the golden boot outright in 1988, though Michael Owen shared the honour in 1998 and 1999.

"Most sides who have the top scorer go on to win the league and though I can't see us winning the league this season, I would love it if Luis could push on and be the league's top scorer."
