The guy scored 49 in one season or Ajax?

We had this discussion towards the end of last season. Apparently they don't use keepers in Holland and Suarez, despite scoring at will at his previous club and for Uruguay is not a good finisher on English soil where the keepers are Gods and the posts actively deflect his shots.

No matter what the reason, he has been a poor goal scorer in the EPL so far. Hopefully it's just a coincidence. Take a look at his end of the season numbers:

10% chance conversion - second worst in the PL
232 minutes per goal
Hit the woodwork 8 times
38% of his shots on target (that weren't goals) were saved low and center

Like I said, hopefully it was just an off year. The guy scored at will for Ajaz and does the same for Uruguay. He either had an off year in the EPL, or the competition is forcing him to take higher contested shots.
