Christian Benteke admires Luis Suarez

Benteke admires Suarez

Aston Villa striker Christian Benteke has said that he can learn a lot from Liverpool forward Luis Suarez.

The 23-year-old believes that the Uruguayan's determination to come back stronger every time he is down is something to admire.

"Suarez is definitely one of the best, and the thing I like about him is that he just keeps going," The Mirror quotes the Belgian as saying. "It's a lesson for every player. You can see what happened with him last season and he came back stronger.

"It's a good motivation for every player, me also. Sometimes a striker can try to dribble, to do some skills and you lose the ball. If, for example, a striker tries to do something and loses the ball he will lose his hope and his confidence.

"But Suarez never, he will always try, try, try again. He will shoot one time outside of the net but he will try again until he scores a goal and that's why he is a great player."

Villa will take on Liverpool at Anfield in the Premier League on Saturday.
