Would you blame Suarez for not scoring, if he doesn't get the ball in good positions?
lol.
I would never blame Suarez because one thing is never in doubt: his passion for victory. He will run himself into the ground, from start to finish, regardless of the score and regardless of how many times he touches the ball. He isn't a bitch who waits for the game to come to him - he makes sure he is always involved whether it is with the ball at his feet, or while he is incessantly pressing the defense/midfield. Technical/creative skills aside, this team would be much better with a Suarez or Kuyt in the squad.
PS Suarez scored 15 goals in a top 3 league in the world as an isolated CF surrounded by teenagers. Whether the service is good or not in any given match, Suarez makes his presence known.

To score goals you need the ball in positions where you can score goals.
You realize that's the point I'm making?

Suarez was a bad example, but he has far better service with Liverpool than Altidore with the USMNT. Look at how Andy Carroll was castrated last year. He got into good positions, just sucked at finishing. That's reasonable grounds for criticism for a striker.
What I'm confused about is how you would replace a forward who is not getting the ball in dangerous positions?
This happened to Rooney and Messi in the World Cup. He kept dropping deeper and deeper to receive the ball. Both couldn't score because their team's formations went to shite. They lost the point of their attacks.
Ball don't lie.

International play and Club play = Apples and Oranges. Those teenagers played a shite ton more together than our international midfield. Especially, when our midfield is every changing. Bad example.
