Luis Suárez claims he is happy at Liverpool and does not want to leave

Luis Suárez claims to be loving life at Liverpool and has no thoughts of leaving Anfield.
The Uruguay striker has enjoyed a superb season, scoring 31 goals and winning the Professional Footballers' Association and Football Writers' player of the year awards.
That came after a hugely controversial summer last year, when Suárez – serving a ban after biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic – tried to force a move away.
Now transfer speculation has started again but Suárez, who earlier this week denied a clause allowing him to move to one of Europe's biggest

Manuel Pellegrini fully expects his Manchester City side to win title

A bullish Manuel Pellegrini has said he expects to win the Premier League title after a 4-0 victory over Aston Villa took Manchester City two points clear of Liverpool going into Sunday's final game of the season, the visit of West Ham United.
Two goals from Edin Dzeko plus one apiece from Stevan Jovetic and Yaya Touré, all in the second half, swept City to 100 league goals for the season, with Pellegrini aiming what sounded like a barb at Chelsea's José Mourinho by claiming he has chosen creative football for his team.
While the implication of this was that the Portuguese utilises a more negative approach for Chelsea. "Of course I expect to win the title because now we are top of the table," Pellegrini said. "It is the last game. Win the next game and we can win the title."
In reality, given City's goal-difference advantage of 13 over Liverpool, a point would suffice.
Pellegrini pointed out that before victory City had led the standings for only 11 days. "It is a strange season, maybe, because we were never top of the table," he said. "Everyone said we were favourites but we were nine points behind Liverpool and eight

Mourinho, true to form, rubbished Chelsea's Premier League title prospects in the aftermath of their Liverpool victory but Schürrle suggested an opposing view is held inside the club's Cobham training ground. The Germany international also

Luis Suárez says Liverpool have surprised even themselves with title run

Luis Suárez has admitted Liverpool are punching above their weight to be competing for the title against big-spending clubs such as Chelsea and Manchester City and acknowledged that this season has surpassed all of his expectations.

Mourinho threatens to play weakened Chelsea team against Liverpool

José Mourinho is threatening to rest virtually his entire Chelsea team and potentially hand Liverpool the Premier League title after revealing he will seek permission from Roman Abramovich to pick a deliberately weakened side in protest at being made to play the game on Sunday.

The 33-year-old midfielder has experienced the full range of feelings during his lengthy career at Anfield but, having seen his side's 2-0 lead pegged back in the second half, there was still time for a nervy finish.

Goals from Raheem Sterling and Martin Skrtel had put the hosts ahead inside 26 minutes, only for a rejuvenated David Silva to score one and
