Fulham boss Martin Jol is wary facing Liverpool striker Luis Suarez this weekend.

The Uruguay international was plying his trade at Ajax when Jol was appointed the club's new manager in 2009 and the 25-year-old was handed the captain's armband by the Fulham boss, who still holds the striker in high regard.

"He is a good player, he scored 53 goals in all competitions when I was there (at Ajax)," he said.

"He is certainly one of the best strikers in Europe, probably in the world, he has scored a lot of goals for his country. He is one of the better forward players."
