Brazil boss Scolari labels Liverpool's Suarez as best player in England

Brazil manager Luiz Felipe Scolari believes Luis Suarez was the best player in the Premier League last season.

As the Selecao prepare to take on Uruguay in the Confederations Cup semi-final on Tuesday, Scolari has identified three of Oscar Tabarez's players as major dangers in the Belo Horizonte clash.

"I have known Tabarez for years and know how he works," Scolari told reporters. "We can guess 90% of their line-up.

"(Edinson) Cavani is the top striker in Italy, (Diego) Forlan was the best player at Copa America and Suarez was the best player in England."
