Liverpool<\/a> captain Steven Gerrard<\/a> believes Luis Suarez<\/a> can go on to be a better player than Manchester City\u2019s<\/a> Carlos Tevez<\/a> after the Uruguayan produced a superb display against Fulham<\/a> on Monday night.<\/p>\n

Suarez picked up the man of the match award and netted his fourth goal for the Reds in the 5-2 victory and his tireless movement was commonly at the heart of much of Liverpool\u2019s good work.<\/p>\n

Prompted on whether the former Ajax man reminded him of Tevez as a player, Gerrard told Sky Sports<\/em>:\u00a0 \u201cI think it\u2019s natural you\u2019re going to compare him to Tevez because of his build, his shape, the way he plays.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBut for me, what I\u2019ve seen so far, I\u2019m going to be slightly biased because he\u2019s on my team and he\u2019s one of our players I think he could go on to be better.<\/p>\n

\u201cHe\u2019s a midfielder’s dream, as soon as you look up he gives great movement, he gives you an option all the time.\u00a0<\/p>\n

\u201cBut what\u2019s impressing me even more about him is when he hasn\u2019t got the ball.\u00a0 His tenacity to win it back, his attitude and in the 92nd and 93rd minute he\u2019s trying to get a second goal, still closing defenders down, just an absolute joy to watch tonight he was.\u201d<\/p>\n

Liverpool were sent on their way to victory when Suarez helped create an opener for Maxi Rodriguez after just 32 seconds of play.\u00a0 The Argentine went on to grab his second hat-trick in three weeks but the man of the match award was rightly given to the man with only one goal on the night according to Gerrard.<\/p>\n

He added: \u201cThat goes to show how special Luis Suarez was tonight, usually if you score a hat-trick you deserve man of the match but Luis Suarez\u2019s movement, his touches, his awareness, his vision, the way he took his goal \u2013 sensational.\u201d<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, Liverpool players Lucas and Glen Johnson were quick to show their pleasure following a successful evening in west London via their Twitter<\/em> accounts.<\/p>\n

The Brazilian reaveled: “What a day for Maxi! Great result and well done all the team for the performance. Thanks all the fans.<\/p>\n

While the England full-back added: “Fantastic result lads…. Roll on next week!!!”
