REUTERS: Few players have undergone the transformation from sinner to saint that Luis Suarez is experiencing this season and the prolific Uruguay striker is now dreaming of winning the Premier League with Liverpool. Liverpool went top of the table by beating Cardiff City 3-1 on Saturday, Suarez scoring twice to take his season’s tally to 19 goals from 12 league matches ahead of the busy Christmas holiday programme which offers no let-up in the title race. The Anfield club visit fellow contenders Manchester City on Thursday before travelling to Chelsea on Sunday and Suarez, who missed the opening five matches of the season following a ban imposed last season for biting an opponent, is a man reborn. “It is my dream, I hope to win the league and a big trophy with Liverpool,” he was quoted as saying on the club website (www.liverpoolfc.com) on Monday. Suarez signed a new four-year contract last week and according to the Daily Telegraph newspaper is scoring goals “to make the likes of (former Anfield greats) Ian Rush, Roger Hunt and Robbie Fowler appear like they were occasional marksmen”. The race for the title reaches the halfway stage with four rounds of matches over Christmas and New Year including the weekend program which concluded on Monday with Arsenal’s 0-0 draw with Chelsea at the Emirates.
