Suppose you have a physicist and a sociologist standing at the side of a field, observing a set of events unfolding on the field. The physicist does [describes] it using the terminology of mass and velocity and frequency of radiation and the rest. And the sociologist does it by describing it as a rugby match.

Why Suarez is too good for Liverpool (and Arsenal)… and check out my retirement gift from Magic Messi
By Jamie Carragher
Luis Suarez is too good for Liverpool. He is one of the top players in the world, whereas Liverpool were only the seventh best team in England last season.
His talents are greater than the stage on which he plays. Not only does he deserve to play in the Champions League, he should be winning it.
Luis Suarez is also too good for Arsenal. In recent years, they haven’t challenged for trophies; they have not made an impact in the Champions League and they are no closer to winning the Premier League.
If Barcelona, Real Madrid or Bayern Munich wanted him, I would wish Luis all the luck in the world and staunchly defend him. That is his level; teams who have a great chance of winning the Champions League. That’s why I'm so puzzled by his determination to leave for the Emirates.
Liverpool have taken a firm line throughout this impasse and John W Henry was emphatic when saying Suarez will not be sold to the club's main rivals for fourth spot. Henry should be applauded by everyone in football for this stance.
I do, though, have a growing sense of unease over how much Suarez has become unsettled. I took part in a training session at Melwood before Steven Gerrard's testimonial last Saturday and I was alarmed by the Luis Suarez with whom I was sharing a pitch.
From his first day at Liverpool, I had been used to seeing a warrior who loved his football and charged around with great enthusiasm. Every day his skill would blow you away. Remember the 50-yard chipped goal at Norwich in April 2012? We saw him do that at Melwood long before. What impressed me most was his attitude. Training was as important as a game. He would leave nothing behind, competing for every ball as if his life depended on it.
On this occasion, however, his attitude was completely different. He didn’t want the ball and had no interest in getting involved. He stood on the periphery, with shoulders slumped.
It didn’t surprise me that Brendan Rodgers has made him train on his own. I never thought Luis would down tools in the way Fernando Torres did when he wanted to leave Liverpool — his attitude over the final 18 months became progressively worse — but now Suarez has given me reason to think again.
To see it come to this is very dispiriting. A lot of good people have stood by Luis since he joined the club. Rodgers and Kenny Dalglish could not have done more for him. In the darkest times, we wore T-shirts to show we were standing alongside him, even if it was ill-advised.
So it is laughable to hear he is unhappy with Liverpool for not letting him join Arsenal. He has been saying a bid of more than £40million would trigger his release. As he is still at Anfield, we can safely say no such clause exists in his contract.
If Suarez were to leave Liverpool for anyone other than Europe’s three most eminent clubs, it would be a mistake. Wayne Rooney also would be making a mistake if he tried to force through a move from Manchester United.
Sometimes players would do well to look at the bigger picture. I can understand if Wayne has been seduced by the idea of becoming Jose Mourinho’s main man, but he could achieve so much more at Old Trafford.
He has the chance to set records that will stand the test of time. Rooney has 197 goals. With a couple of good seasons, he could overtake Denis Law (237) and then Sir Bobby Charlton (249). That would be a phenomenal feat.
What is more important to these players? Achieving legendary status at their clubs — both are blessed with the talent to do so — or moving on a whim, leaving under a cloud and never being able to return to the clubs where they had once given such joy?
I would love Wayne to show how good he is this season, to show he is one of the most feared players in Europe. He has won all the trophies you could wish for, it is about him cementing his legacy.
He left Everton under a cloud in 2004, he doesn’t want to leave United in the same way.
Suarez and Rooney have their reasons for wanting to move but I do not agree with them. The most important thing for a player is to have his career seen in the right light. Suarez needs to give Liverpool one more year.
Both players should get back to what they do best — and give the clubs who have provided them with a platform to become world stars the respect and loyalty they deserve.
Stop the cyberhate
