Suarez Expects Title Challenge

Luis Suarez believes that Liverpool will challenge for the Premier League title next season following the permanent appointment of Kenny Dalglish as manager.

The Scot was handed a three-year contract on Thursday afternoon as a reward for transforming fortunes at Anfield since taking over on a caretaker basis in January.

Four months ago Liverpool were scrapping in the bottom half of the Premier League, but now have a Europa League place in their own hands after demolishing Fulham on Monday.

Dalglish has overseen the rejuvenation and Suarez, who was only signed from Ajax in January but has already scored four goals, thinks the only way is up.

"I have been very happy with how I have settled in the Premier League," said the Uruguay star at the Adidas home away from home Liverpool away kit launch.

"We had a good win on Monday night against Fulham and the team played well.

"Working with Kenny Dalglish has been brilliant because he is a great manager who has won titles before as a player and a coach with the club.

"With him as our manager next year, I am sure we will be challenging for the league once again."
