Liverpool legend Fowler excited by Suarez, Carroll attacking combo

Liverpool legend Robbie Fowler is excited by what he sees from Luis Suarez and Andy Carroll.

Fowler, who scored 183 goals in 369 games for the club, is confident their double act will flourish.

"They've played a few games together and so far it looks very good," Fowler told the Liverpool Echo.

"I think eventually when they're both firing on all cylinders they'll be a handful for every defence in the Premier League.

"Luis Suarez looks a fantastic player. I was a bit tentative when he first came because obviously his record in Holland was very good but there have been players who've come from Holland in the past and not set the Premier League alight.

"But I was happy with his performances straight away and he looks like he's going to be a very good player for Liverpool.

"Andy Carroll cost a lot of money but that's no slight on him. It's not his fault and if you want the best players you've got to pay a little bit of money. His record this season in the Premier League has been fantastic.

"He obviously came to Liverpool and was injured for a large portion of the time but since he's been playing he looks a real handful."
