Brendan Rodgers has vowed to make Liverpool stronger after accepting Luis Suarez had to go. The Liverpool manager signalled  Suarez’s departure after Barcelona agreed to pay the striker’s £75million buy-out clause and he will be unveiled next week close to the Nou Camp following a medical. Suarez, last season’s Premier League top scorer and winner of the PFA and Football Writers’ Player of the Year awards, pleaded for understanding from Liverpool fans who idolised the  Uruguayan but who had also grown increasingly exasperated at the controversy he courted throughout his three-and-a-half-year stay.
