Steven Gerrard believes that Luis Suarez's current form will boost the Reds' chances of clinching the FA Cup trophy over Chelsea tomorrow.

Liverpool captain Steven Gerrard has claimed that he wouldn't swap striker Luis Suarez for any other player in the world.

The Uruguayan has been a welcome addition to the Merseyside club following his move from Ajax in January last year, netting 17 goals in his first full season with the Premier League outfit.

Despite periods of controversy for the 25-year-old, Gerrard has insisted that Suarez's "magical" hat-trick in the Reds' win over Norwich City last week will boost Liverpool as they prepare to face Chelsea in the FA Cup final tomorrow.

"It's great for us that Luis is going into the final in such tremendous form," Gerrard told the Liverpool Echo. "It was a magical hat-trick at Norwich. He took his goals brilliantly. He showed that he's a world class player. At the moment I wouldn't swap Luis for anyone in the world."

The Reds will travel down to Wembley for the eagerly anticipated clash against the Blues this weekend.
