Liverpool owner says time was right for Suarez sale

Liverpool owner John Henry has explained in an interview with 'The Sun' the club's plans for next season, and he of course had some words on the departure of Luis Suarez to Barcelona too.

"It was time for Luis and time for the club to make a break,” Henry explained.

“He brought so much to the club but we brought a lot to Luis. 

"I thought we needed more depth; last year we needed more depth, and we’re playing a lot more games this year with the Champions League. 

"I think you will still see a very explosive Liverpool offense.”

With Suarez now a Barça player, Liverpool have moved to add striker Rickie Lambert and Loic Remy to their squad as they prepare for their return to the Champions League.
