Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers has said that controversial striker Luis Suarez is 'champing at the bit' while preparing to come back from suspension after biting Chelsea's Branislav Ivanovic.

According to Sport24, Suarez is finally eligible to play again after serving a 10-match ban following his shocking clash with Ivanovic last season, and the Uruguayan is set to feature in Wednesday's League Cup tie against Manchester United at Old Trafford.

Rodgers said that the forward has prepared himself over the last number of weeks in a fantastic manner, and his commitment has been great.

He said that Suarez lives for the game and he puts everything into it, adding that it was what the club expected from the type of character the player was.
