Luis Suarez marched his team out of the tunnel and led Liverpool by example. This was as close as it comes to the complete performance.
The Liverpool forward, captaining the club in the absence of Steven Gerrard, radiated in the role. He played as if he owned the place. Both his goals were majestic and he responded to Paulinho’s 63rd-minute dismissal by finishing the game with assists for the other three.
The Tottenham midfielder was sent off when he raked his studs down Suarez’s chest and after that it was just a matter of how many Liverpool would score.They settled on five.
Suarez’s contribution was immense, the kind of performance that leaves opposition managers fearing the sack. Andre Villas-Boas was a broken man by the end and his decision to hug Suarez as they went down the tunnel was crazy. You just cannot do that, not after this.
