Liverpool striker Luis Suarez spoke about how he lives in England and his relationship with the British press, how he has to deal with the provocations of opposing fans, and what projects his club has for the future.



"Those who are South American are treated differently from local people. Cultures are different, that’s the way it is. What we have to do is play football, do what we know, what we always wanted, what we suffer, what we strive to be here, (and failed) to go around listening to the nonsense you sometimes hear.”



"I think on the pitch you have reactions that make you think, “What the f*** did I just do?' They criticized me when we played Stoke. And I, if I'm honest, I dive because I was really wanted to draw with Stoke at [the Brittania] and wanted to do something. But from Stoke, Everton, for them to talk the way they did, there's no need for that.”



"Today, I realize that Suarez sells. Because the other day, I accidentally hit a ball with my hand and had no desire to make the goal and hit it in. And because I kissed my wrist, people began to criticize. If I talk in the locker room to Coates about Gerrard, the media will say something like: “Suarez talks badly about Gerrard in the Liverpool locker room.” They will invent anything. They should talk about football and not the attitude of each individual player.”





Regarding the Evra incident: "These are things of football. My conscience is quiet for everything that happened. United control most of the press here, they have a lot of power here and the press will always be of help to them.”



Regarding the future of the team, he said he would like to be "a major player,” but stressed: "I am one who thinks that [success] does not depend on individual players, but the whole team. The mentality is that young players win matches and experienced players win championships.”
