Suarez: Calm Rodgers approach ideal for Liverpool title push

Luis Suarez says Liverpool boss Brendan Rodgers' calm manner is ideal as they chase down the Premier League title.

Suarez believes that philosophy has been important in the 10-match winning run that has taken Liverpool to the summit.

He told liverpoolfc.com: "It's very important to see the manager relaxed.

"Brendan gives all of us confidence because he's good at his job. He believes in all of the squad and when you have that belief from your boss then it's easier to perform at your best."

Suarez added: "It's normal for the supporters to get excited and be discussing our chances.

"When I'm out shopping or out with my family I bump into fans who mention it to me. I've told them to stay calm and not to worry. We'll be trying our best.

"For the players it's probably best if we don't get involved in that kind of talk.

"Personally, I think that if I don't watch TV, listen to the radio or read about us on the internet it's better. I know what the situation is.

"Winning the title would be very special but we can't think about that yet.

"There is no point in looking at other games or what might happen in a week or two weeks. For us it's always about the next game."
