Suarez: Barca only human!

Luis Suarez insists Barcelona are only “human” after their surprise loss to Alaves and big win against Celtic on Tuesday.

Suarez bagged a brace as Barca emphatically avenged their 2-1 defeat to Alaves over the weekend with a 7-0 thrashing of Celtic on the Champions League’s opening night.

“There were many games in which we weren’t together,” the striker explained to TV3 after the game.

“There were the holidays and Neymar was at the Olympics, but now we have the chance of enjoying [our football] together again.

“We were starters and enjoyed helping the team to get our first three points in the Champions League.

“We’re human beings. It’s normal to have a bad day. We know the League is long and that we dropped three points we didn’t expect [to drop], but now we know we must rely on ourselves because otherwise the League can make things difficult for us.”

So does Suarez believe he can repeat his 58-goal haul of last season in this?

“Exceeding last season’s number of goals is very difficult, what matter are the objectives at group level,” he replied.
