I think Rooney and Suarez are two different kettles of fish these days, and Suarez is rather central to Liverpool's play. Still, it's not a bad shout - I always felt that England would do better if they simply focused on a specific club when selecting their players. Fair? Perhaps not. More likely to win? I think so.
EDIT: Watching this game is painful, and I'm not just talking about it being on a very horrid ITV broadcast. Seriously, what the hell. Anyway, back to the game... you may as well title this match "Manchester United: An Experiment in Playing Without a Midfield". Actually, you could call a lot of our games that this season, but none more so than today. What the hell. We're playing long ball because there is literally nobody in our midfield. At all. We are out of the centre circle pretty much at all times. Carrick plays deeper than ever before. Cleverley was in midfield for a little bit but mostly was floating from flank to flank. All the other players (sans defence) were sitting up top. Olympiakos aren't just beating us, they are dancing around us and having a lot of fun.
