Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers said Luis Suarez was "unplayable" after the striker's wonder goal helped the Reds salvage a 1-1 draw against Newcastle in Sunday's English Premier League game.
The Uruguayan netted a brilliantly taken equalizer in the 67th minute, after Yohan Cabaye had given the away side a 1-0 lead late in the first half, through another wonderful finish.
"I thought he was unplayable," Rodgers said. "Coloccini getting sent off was frustration. I don't think he could get near him today, and he's a good defender, Coloccini. He has been a great player over these last number of years for Newcastle.
"Suarez is so bright, so clever, he's a world-class striker. On that form today he really frustrates and provokes defenders.
"He is an absolute joy to work with. Every single day he's in to train, to get better and improve. He's still a young player and he's committed his best years to us here.
"We play him in that false 9 role. He's not a traditional No.9 who's up there, stood, static. That's why when we get a number of players in who can work off his qualities, that's going to make us a real threat.
"I ask him to get on the move and get defenders out of their positions. It's then important that we've got men running in off that. If we can add to the group, you can see the excitement in our team. We have got a lot of young players, the senior players have been fantastic.
"For now we'll keep plugging away and working hard."
Rodgers said he thought his side deserved all three points against Newcastle. "I thought we were outstanding, I have to say, our intensity and possession was relentless in the game," he told Sky Sports. "We went to sleep just before half-time but for every other moment of the game I thought we were brilliant, and we deserved three points but we could just not put away any of the chances we had."
Despite going a goal down against the run of play, the manager insisted his side never panicked. "I just said stay calm, sometimes when you dominant the game like we did and concede, it can be easy to play desperation football and chase the goal but I thought it was important (to keep) playing as we were playing as we opened them up enough times," Rodgers added.
"In fairness to them they defended well but they had to, but I thought second-half like the first, our pressing, our pressure, our possession was good and fast and we could just not finish off the many of the chances that would allow us to win the game and that is our fifth draw in ten games.
"But as we go forward and once we improve the group we will certainly turn draws into wins and with that type of football we will create chances."
