Man City's Clichy: Suarez gives everything for Barcelona

Manchester City defender Gael Clichy believes Luis Suarez is an extremely selfless player.

The Uruguayan striker netted the winning goal for Barcelona in their 2-1 victory over Real Madrid on Sunday with a superb finish in the 56th minute.

It was an impressive showing from the former Liverpool ace and his performance was noted by City full-back Clichy who feels he makes run after run for the good of his team.

"That is the sort of player he is, of course he is a great player but he gives everything for the team," he said.

"This run (for the goal) is the one we will remember but he probably did 10 or 15 runs like this in the game where he didn't get the ball.

"It's part of the job of a striker and he is a great striker. You have to expect when you give him a chance, he will hit the target."
