Jose Enrique claims Luis Suarez has become as important to Liverpool as Lionel Messi is to Barcelona.
Statistics
A 3-2 victory over Tottenham Hotspur on Sunday offered Liverpool's top-four bid another welcome shot in the arm, and Enrique was relieved to see the Reds get over the line as their recent record against sides at the business end of the Premier League has been hugely disappointing.
The Spanish full-back added: "In the first half they killed us a little bit because they scored in the last minute. It was a little bit bad at that point but the manager said some words in the dressing room to lift us.
"They scored again in the second half and, to be honest, I didn't think we would win the game.
"The statistics speak for themselves - of course you want to win and we will try but for our mentality we don't have good experiences of this type when we are losing.
"But the team worked very hard and this is the important thing because when the team stick together you can see the results and the character from the team was really good."
