Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has no doubt Luis Suarez is among the best players in the world.
England coach Roy Hodgson says Suarez still needs to prove himself on the big stage ahead of tomorrow's World Cup clash with Uruguay.
But Carragher told the Daily Mail: "Luis is in the top five or six players in the world as he does extraordinary things. As soon as we started training with him, it was clear he was the real deal and he did things that would take your breath away.
"He has made an art out of nutmegs. You think you can stop him, you know what he is trying to do, but in a flash the ball will go through your legs and he is away. I have watched his dribble past four Manchester United defenders in March 2011 countless times but I still don't know how he did it.
"The game that provided ultimate proof of his brilliance was a 5-2 win at Fulham in May 2011. Maxi Rodriguez scored a hat-trick but Luis was unplayable and man of the match. I said after that he was one of the best in the Premier League.
"Now it is beyond dispute he's one of the finest on the planet."
