Luis Suarez.
 

See hes finally tasted Champions League Success.:hehetable

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I blame the nutritionists, they told him to eat more bran.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Not much bran in a Chelski shirt:rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

There is when BRANislav Ivanovic is wearing it.:p

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

It is obviously Jay that has triggered this onslaught - since he dropped the scousers from his list of supported teams, Cannibal could not contain his frustration.
I considered the request to donate his fine to the Hillsborough Families to be very a very cynical attempt to garner some support, which has apparently backfired and caused some embarrassment - the club should have banned him for a number of games just as United did with Cantona.
Liverpool used to have a reputation for being a hard club but they were respected in the days of Paisley et al - not any longer.
Let us hope that the FA resolve it quickly and then we can try and put it behind us.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Hope the other fella doesn't get rabies. 10 match ban for this disgusting act and rightly so.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

To me it should be a matter of perspective, The F.A. do sod all about very dangerous tackles which could end a players career,Suarez deserves a big ban no doubt, but end of the day a bite is more likely to hurt yeh, than end yer career, This just demonstrates again how useless the F.A. are.:rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

The question of "intent to injure" must be taken into consideration. What Suarez did obviously falls into that category but who is to say that some of the tackles, even though they look horrific, were made with "intent to injure".
I see that the scousers are moaning again that this is too severe a punishment. Are the owners going to jump in again and tell the day by day management to shut up?
It will be interesting to see if they do appeal the length of the ban by midday Friday.
One thing that did amuse me about all this was when Cannibal suddenly started limping and clutching his stomach some time after the bite.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Spot on cashy, punishment by headlines is the FAs stock answer, if it placates the southern press it's fine, Suarez needed punishing but along with that a promise to get him help which he quite honestly needs.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Utter crap,whilst some tackles do fall into a "Grey Area" no doubt, some obviously don't, deliberately stamping on another player fer instance, I find it rather pathetic a united fan thinks this way, but its easy fer any sensible fan to see what i'm on about.:rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

You mean fans like you, that have actually been to a game cashy, not just watched "their" team pick trophies up from the comfort of their armchair:rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Thing is jaysay, they think on the same lines as owd red nose!! If it suits united its right.:rolleyes: Me point was about perspectives n the F.A. What part of "Suarez deserves a big ban" they can't grasp,is completely beyond comprehension!! But then Fergy only sees what he wants to see also.:D:rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Who is to say Mr Yates? Maybe Roy Keane ref: his 1997 tackle on Alf-Inge Haaland?

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Nowt in the `97 one DP ( injured himself ), 2001 was the bad one.
Roy Keane Ends Håland's Career In Manchester Derby - YouTube

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Correction noted sir.... nasty potato faced Manc mick whatever day or year....

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I was aiming to see if that would be recalled, Had me doubts,cos as i said the fans are like owd red nose,"Selective Memory":rolleyes:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Bout sums it up!

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Amazing how the FA use technology for this , yet if a ball goes over the goaline and ref misses it , his decision stands . Do the FA use technology ???? only when it suits.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Thats me whole point greeny, The F.A. have always been very selective,:rolleyes: Complete waste of space in my eyes.;)

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I think that if you take the trouble to look up the facts , Roy Keane admitted in his book that he had deliberately set out to injure Haaland.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Maybe the problem is the game of football itself ... or, rather, what it has become in the BIG leagues, with the expensive superstars. Some of us can remember when it was a man's game, played by men. I don't think I'm the only one still around on here who can remember the 1958 Cup Final (back in the day when the FA Cup meant something), when Nat Lofthouse bundled Harry Gregg into the net to score a goal. Now, seems like you can't fart in the general direction of an opponent without getting a yellow. A bunch of overpaid, wimpish prima donnas whose major contribution to the game is rolling around in fake agony in order to draw a free kick or get an opponent carded. Not surprising that frustrations build up, and sometimes burst out in, let's say, inappropriate ways, whether it be a rascist slur or a chomp on someone's arm. There is way too much cheap, chippy stuff going on. And the reffing! Absolute garbage. I don't know of any other sport where the officiating is so bad, or so controversial. In hockey, for example, there are very few questioned calls ... sometimes whole games go by without even one. And I've watched games in which a whole period goes by without a single penalty being called.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Was it too difficult for you to understand?
Just carry on backing up your mate Don Quixote, you both spout the same garbled rubbish:rolleyes:
Of course deliberately stamping is a pre-meditated action and should be punished accordingly - hence my "intent to injure" phrase, many other - as you say "Grey Area" tackles, and elbows/forearms, can only be known to the perpetrator as to whether they are a deliberate attampt to injure an opponent:eek:

Love it Alan just love it:D

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

The only Grey areas at United were those Grey shirts they wore at Southampton a few years ago, when they got whacked 6-3:D they blamed it on not being able to pick their team mates out because of the background :D

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Quite right Jay - I don't think they have ever worn grey again.
Mind you, with all the colour changes every season, who can lkeep up. I feel sorry for families with a couple of kids or so, who fork out every year for the new strips - applies to a lot of clubs, really annoys me.:mad:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Annoys me too Barrie, especially when shirts cost around £40 a throw, When you think about it a new second strip every year is ridiculous I think the Rovers have 3 different away strips, why?, if theirs a clash with blue what's wrong with one second strip. They change the home strip nearly every season too, why how many ways are there to produce a blue and white halved shirt:confused: United are much the same, but because of their world wide standing its magnified immensely, think they must have 3 away shirts too, plus a special kit for European matches. I used to buy Rovers shirts mainly because its what I wear around the house, and they are easy to wash, but I refuse to buy anything from Rovers Store while Venky's own the club they aren't getting any of my money:mad:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Well well well......

3 bites and you are out.

"Discuss"

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

pinching Cashman's original line..

" I reckon Suarez has had his last taste of World Cup Football"

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Nah mate! He was feeling a tad peckish & fancied an Italian. ;)

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Luis Suarez is the Mike Tyson of football.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Probably play fer the African Cannibals next season.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Maybe Mr C

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

He should be banned from playing football for life , had he been a dog he would be put down. Get him muzzled.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Fifa: "So Mr.Suarez what's your excuse for biting Chiellini?"

L.S: "Chiellini? Chiellini? I thought it was Languini!"

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Personally,reckon hes got a slate loose n needs to see a shrink.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I know nothing of football, but what I do know is that it is behaviour that would not be acceptable in primary school.....and seeing the footage he was seen to be holding his mouth like it had been an accidental contact.....this, to me shows he knew exactly what he was doing, and tried to cover his very bad behaviour.
He should not be allowed to play competitive football ever again.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I agree with you Margaret, he should be banned for life. I hope the fella he bit sues him for assault. I have maintained for long enough that he should be in Equity for the way he acts throwing himself about for absolutely nothing.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

He been suspended for 7 games , pathetic. He been fined 100,000 swiss francs but thats nowt with the wages he is on. The mans a disgrace .

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

The Italian media hasn't gone to town over this incident like the British press seems to have done. Probably because of the latest "Balotelli" bad-boy behaviour and comments/their worst ever showing at a world cup in God knows how long /resignation of the Manager (Prandelli) and President of the FA...among other things which have over-shadowed Suarez's "snack attack".
I watched the match and saw the incident - it ranks for me alongside Zidane's head-butt in the 2006 final -again against an Italian player. Slap on the wrist and he kept a low profile for a while until the dust settled on it and his name now seems to remain untarnished.
The same will happen in this case - a fine which is a drop in the ocean for him to pay and eventually it will be 'forgotten' and he will be acclaimed a football legend somewhere down the line.

Great message that FIFA sends out - what happened to all that Fair Play jazz?

From the FIFA site "Fair play is a fundamental part of the game of football. It represents the positive benefits of playing by the rules, using common sense and respecting fellow players, referees, opponents and fans."

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

it just been on Radio Lancs that he also been banned from ALL football for 4 months , making it Oct before he can play.Meanwhile Liverpool announce they will be looking into the FIFA punishment before they decide on what they are doing as they will not tolerate that behaviour.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

The way i see it, is the guys got off very lightly in my view, Uraguay say they are going to appeal, Then if Uraguay fail to see theres a problem, then F.I.F.A. should also ban them simple as.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

suarez a genius with a ball but a prat with his teeth

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Agree, not sure F.I.F.A. are correct thought in suspending him fer club matches? been much better ordering him to see a shrink,along wi international ban.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Agreed, not dealing a full deck in my view.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

His previous nibble so to speak was for his club Ol'
So what you saying let him still play for Liverpool at the risk of him doing it again?
Better ban him from all football until the people in white coats say he won't do it again.
And hey Cantona got a longer ban in my opinion for a lesser offence.
*manc wa*k that he was*

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Nah i'm saying simply its none of F.I.F.A.s business, club football. thats down to others,as far as i'm aware. Cantona was not done by F.I.F.A, was he?

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Send him to the dentist, have the offending weapons removed. The worst he can then be accused of is being a sucker? Because F.I.F.A. are the world governing body, which every club is a member of, they do have power to enforce a complete ban, which in my mind should include a sane bill of health before he is allowed back. Just food for thought.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

They should bring Suarez on strapped to a sack truck & make him play wearing a Hannibal Lecter mask! (Seriously though I think his biting habit probably stems from bad behaviour that was not addressed in childhood.)

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Why should the scousers not tolerate it - they have done before

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

It was during a FIFA competition but they also have the final say in anything concerning football. They didn't need to get involved in the Cantona affair as it was dealt with by the FA/Premier League/Club, The Uruguayan FA don't think he has done anything wrong. In my view FIFA should act like the PL - if any appeal is not upheld then the punishment is increased. I do have some sympathy for the scousers:rolleyes: after the way they supported him after his racist episode and later for his biting of another player - egg on face?

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

An obscene transfer fee - even ignoring his aggressive behaviour. :(

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

I hope Barcelona have a good dentist...somone who could remove those teeth and give LS dentures...he wouldn't be doing much biting then...well, not without Fixodent.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Hope this don't come back to bite Barcelona.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

So he's after a change of diet then, Tapas anyone? :smile:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Yeah, he couldn't stomach scouse anymore.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Roll on August - the scousers without Hannibal, Oh Boy.
Still reckon they were already resigned to losing him this summer despite his protestations that he loved Liverpool and didn't want to play anywhere else and recently signed a new (5 year?) contract.

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Hunt 69, Keegan 77, Rush 87, Fowler 2001, Owen 2004, Torres 2011, erm....

They were supposedly "irreplaceable"?

"We go again" indeed..

It is not about the player, it is about the team, no one player is bigger than the team.

Looking forward to the new season, bring it on:cool:

Re: Luis Suarez.
 

Yup BG he's somebody elses problem now. A ticking time bomb if ever there was one.

Rodgers and the Anfield crew will but the £75 million to good use I am sure.
