In anticipation of the big match between Chelsea and Liverpool on the 19th day of the English Premier League, Jose Mourinho, the coach of Chelsea, expressed his desire for Luis Suarez, the prolific Uruguayan striker for Liverpool, to be absent from the field due to a minor injury. Mourinho humorously remarked, “He may have a small injury. I’m not asking for a serious injury, just a small one so that he will be absent for four days…”
The tongue-in-cheek comment reflects Mourinho’s acknowledgment of Suarez’s exceptional goal-scoring record, with 19 goals in just 13 league games this season. While Mourinho’s wish is lighthearted, it underscores the competitive nature of the upcoming match and the recognition of Suarez’s potential impact on the game. Liverpool had faced a defeat at the hands of Manchester City in the previous Premier League fixture on Thursday.
