Brendan Rodgers says Luis Suarez must shoulder Liverpool's striking duties

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers admits the need to win games means he may not be able to protect Luis Suarez as the club battle a striker shortage, but says he has not considered cutting Andy Carroll's loan spell short.

The boss continued: "Andy has obviously gone out to get games. We have people watching when he plays and they report back on how he is doing. "But with Fabio's injury just coming up we will assess it from there."
