Definitely the best individual season in Premier League history. I've never seen a player carry a team that close to the top like Suarez had with that trash Liverpool side.
I actually watched Liverpool quite a bit that season just to see what crazy thing he would pull off. Even in games where he didn't score his performance was top notch, ex: 5-1 vs Arsenal, 3-2 vs City.
His stats at the end of the season were: 33 games, 31 goals, 12 assists. He managed to pull that off without taking a single penalty. Liverpool earned 12 penalties that season, it's fair to assume that Suarez likely hit 40 goals had he been in charge of penalty duty and that is just outrageous. But even without penalties he managed 43 goal contributions in 33 games, which is again crazy. The only prem player who I can recall besting that number is Thierry Henry in 2003 with 44 goal contributions. But that was with what went on to be the Arsenal "Invisibles" and with 4 more games.
Great player and the only one imo who legitimately competed with Messi and Ronaldo during their prime. I
