That term, he bagged an impressive 31 goals for Liverpool in the league. His photos were hung on banners, with the fans chanting his name. Liverpool just found their hero.
It did not take much time before the Anfield fans realised what was to befall them. Rumours appeared that Barcelona was tracking the Uruguayan. That later became a reality when the Spanish giants snapped him up by splashing £64.98 million on him in 2014. And that was it, the Catalans had stolen another hero from the Premier League.
