Liverpool legend Rush: Suarez better than Messi, Ronaldo

Liverpool legend Ian Rush has declared Luis Suarez the best player in the world. Rush rates the Uruguayan in the £100 million class.

"Suarez is unbelievable," Rush declared to the Sunday Express. "What I am saying now is he is the best player in the world.

"People talk about Cristiano Ronaldo and Lionel Messi but they are not playing regularly through injuries right now in Spain. Suarez is, and he is doing it in the hardest league in the world.

"In Spain, you know normally it's either Barcelona or Real Madrid winning the league. To do it consistently in the Premier League - the most demanding league in the world - that is special.

"I thought last season he and Gareth Bale were the two best players in the Premier League. You wondered whether that might be just a one-off for Suarez but he is even better now. He has taken his football to a different level.

"If you did sell Suarez you are talking about a fee of £100m. He has made a huge difference."
