Johnson insists Liverpool will prove life without Suarez

Liverpool defender Glen Johnson is confident they'll prove there is life after Luis Suarez this season. After banking £75million from Suarez's move to Barcelona, Liverpool have strengthened by spending close to £90m on Adam Lallana, Rickie Lambert, Dejan Lovren, Emre Can, Lazar Markovic and Divock Origi.

"It gets overlooked that we played the first six games of last season without Luis and made a fantastic start so we can clearly win without him," said the England defender.

"Any team that loses a player like Luis is going to feel it. But we will carry on the way we do, creating chances. I think we were the team who created the most chances last season. We've signed some good strikers and I'm sure once they get a chance they will take it."
