[Closed] The Suarez nearest the bull ban length game

If it stays at 4 months he will miss approx 9 LFC league games, approx 3 Champions League & Maybe a cup game. 😐

Their placards are better spelt than most of the ones we get in the UK, maybe Brazil should be sending [i]us[/i] money to improve [i]our[/i] education?

Twas a mid-match snack, no more - Get over already

Seriously though; with all the corruption in world football, peoples killed during construction of stadia (due to poor working conditons and negligible concern for workers' safety) not to mention the enormous waste of money in a country where health care and education are desperately starved of resources, does it really matter that one overpaididiot bit anotheroverpaid idiot?

Have you done anything to help the people of Brazil?

I find it sad that companies are using this as an opportunity for advertisement. It's utterly bizarre and I've laughed at the GIFs and memes, but it is ultimately a man with some mental health problems and I think companies should be a bit more tasteful about it than some teenagers with photoshop and the internet.

Thats ok yeah? Isn't there a rumour knocking around about him being sacked from LFC?

HtS - So who was nearest the bull?

No idea. Can't be arsed working it out.

@bikebouy - they will never sack him, it makes economic sense. Sell him yes perhaps.

@chambord - zero sympathy for him, he's got more than enough money to pay for his own therapy and through all these incidents (3 bites and a racist slur) he's never truly admitted he was wrong or apologised

This. The situation could be used as a wonderful opportunity to highlight mental health issues, and football is an excellent vehicle for promoting ideas. Instead, everyone hs a cheap laugh and we ignore wht's important in our society.

but it is ultimately a man with some mental health problems

bollx.. He is an idiot with a bad temper. Some people hit, some kick, some spit, he bites. It doesn't mean he has a mental health problem. Th

"he's never truly admitted he was wrong or apologised"

^this is what really grates my helmetdale. Something so blatantly obvious in all instances with clear video evidence. Not even the decency to apologise. I hope he proves me wrong on this occasion but he seems to think he is bigger than the game and can just do as he pleases.

What? Im just clarifying what games he will miss

Sack a £75m asset? you pissed? 😉

Nah. Sack him and take the hit to save face after backing him when he was being a racist shitebag.

He had been denying it because he was probably told that would be his best defence. He's a brilliant footballer but also a very horrible man. The celebration when Ghana missed the penalty which his blatant handball on the line has conceded, his racist comments and subsequently refusing to shake Evra's hand after his ban . the previous 2 biting incidents. Then after his fellow professionals and the UK press both make him the player of the year. So after he scores 2 against England, he says that it's payback for the disrespect that he's been shown by the English media.
He's just a horrible little shit.

I wonder what would happen if i walked into a competitors business and proceeded to bite somebody there on the shoulder... an assault charge followed by being sacked I imagine, unless they liked it 😉

The guy should be made to wear a muzzle while playing, that or just castrate him and see if that helps - they would do it to an agressive dog after all.

Awe I dunno, watched that comment on the BBC earlier this morning.. So he's worth, well was worth, £75m?
Noiice, shame he's devalued himself overnight.

WOuld a team really be interested in him now?

Just askin, pissed I'm not, I may write like I am though 😉

Yes

+1.

A skilled player without doubt, but not a very nice person!

Surely he has massively devalued himself. A club pays millions because they want a player. evidence would suggest that he will carry on getting lengthy suspensions, that therefore makes him an expensive spectator.

And given that said clubs make millions from their sponsors, I doubt many will be wanting to be seeing him with their names emblazoned across his kit

I am especially glad of this outcome given all those surrounding the Uruguayan national team defending him and accusing others of having agendas and claiming pictures were Photoshopped.

I saw earlier that since august 2010 he's been suspended for a total of 34 matches and not once been shown a red card.

Perhaps they could all wear matching T-shirts sporting his image when they come out for the next match, as a sign of solidarity for their persecuted brother 😆

perhaps you should design them 😉

*fires up the Mac*

As a serious note though; that whole t-shirt 'he's not a racist' business left King Kenny looking like a prize plum, and I'd imagine Brendan Rodgers is presently feeling more than a tad miffed that he's been left looking a fool for all the support he's given him, only to have it thrown back in his face.

With that track record, what manager is going to want him on his squad now? Goal scoring prowess or not. Given his apparently limitless potential for leaving you looking like a right tool!

Unfortunately they are a little like women that date playerz.... They will think they can change him.

Remember - this is the PFA player of the year we're talking about here. I love the stunts that he pulls.

Every single manager in any league would still want him playing for them. He scores goals, goals win games. I don't agree with the logic but this is football.

Indeed, it will all blow over eventually, although I'm pretty certain he will now go to Spain for a cut price £75m. It would have been around £90m before the bite!

With that track record, what manager is going to want him on his squad now?

This is football you are talking about binners. There's not a manager in the premiership that wouldn't have him.

@binners his goals nearly won the PL for Liverpool, they knew he had that potential impact which is largely why they overlooked his racist / biting tendancies. They knew he was a biter when they signed him. As others have posted pretty much any club would gladly have him and try to manage the biting fall out.

they overlooked his racist / [s]biting[/s] tendancies

Had he had previous for racism?

I find it sad that companies are using this as an opportunity for advertisement.

I think Bill Hicks may have had a point

Professional football doesn't seem (as an ignorant outsider) the most moral/altruistic/shining example of businesses

I think how outraged/apoplectic/tumescent/aroused one gets depends a lot on the team for which the offending player plays and how you feel about that team.

wasn't there a city player who kept screwing up off the pitch, did he get dropped for embarrassment or did they keep him on/sell at a profit?

Which one? There are so many...

You can't compare Suarez to Super Mario. He was, and still is, a total nut job, who was pretty handy on the pitch. But he's genuinely, naively funny, and quite charming with it, whereas Suarez is just a thoroughly unpleasant human being

Randomly giving out money to strangers in Manchester city centre, entering random pubs and buying everyone a drink, setting fire to your house while letting off fireworks from your bathroom window, then turning up on spec to ask for a tour of a women's prison, is quite a bit different from racially abusing the opposition, then repeatedly sinking your teeth into people for no apparent reason, all while being thoroughly unapologetic for it all. If you wanted a suitable comparison, then the delightful and charming John Terry at Chelsea might be better. Another player thought of with warmth and affection throughout the land

@deadlarcy - I meant they didn't sell him on after the Evra ban

Guardian reporting that Suarez is not allowed to train with Liverpool under the terms of the ban. Interesting that meeting between players lawyers and club is in Barcelona

And lets not forget the time his mum came to visit, and sent him out to buy some cleaning supplies, and he came back in hire van containing two mopeds and a trampoline.

Interviews with Liverpool fans on the BBC were hilarious, still supporting him like this wasn’t a big deal.

Strange people.

I think there is a reasonable case to be made that while Suarez's actions are rather pathetic and embarrassing, there were more dangerous and violent actions even in that match. There has been a lack of perspective in the screaming moral outrage being made by many and lead by the media.

Fair point, well made.

But all of that angst on the pitch is normal, so is deemed normal, biting isn't normal.

Strange people.

Its the persecution complex. They can't see past it. Alan Hanson said this morning on 5 Live that he should be told he has one absolute last chance, then thats it!

It was then pointed out to him that that was exactly what he said the last time it happened. 🙄

*sits back and awaits yet another angry response, by text or email, from Liverpool Fayns* 😉

@ MSP spitting in your face is not very dangerous either
Neither are the myriad of "headbuts" you see.
No one is saying he endangered anyone they are saying is that he deliberately bit someone for the THIRD TIME.

I think only Urugayians and Liverpool fas are defending/minimising this.

DD is right some are using tribal football reasons to attack him but he has issues with his anger/frustration.
