Luis Suárez

[James P]

Luis Suarez is a genius with his feet but otherwise he is a ****ing idiot.

If he was playing for another club everybody here would label him an absolute scumbag. I also think this 'he has mental issues' argument is complete bollocks. He is a 27 year old man who had twice previously bitten opponents. He isn't a toddler, he knows it wrong and he CAN control himself but he chooses not to.

It isn't instinctive for a human to bite to defend themselves or cause injury. He isn't a dog.

I'm not fussed though because we all knew he was like this. The media storm he has just caused is really boring/frustrating now though and he has made Gerrard and Rodgers look like total bellends for claiming he had changed his character.

There will always be a risk with Suarez doing this sort of thing but imo its a risk still worth taking for LFC.

****ing hell lads not this bull**** about leg breakers being worse!

It's not a pub topic with your mates after several rounds of tequilas, ah trev, would you rather lose a leg to a shark or an arm to a lion after being shat on by lisa riley.

Biting amongst adults is not something that is commonly seen as acceptable behaviour in a civilised world. Its a disgusting act. Spitting at someone is also unacceptable behaviour. This guy has a huge responsibility to act in an appropriate manner especially with the eyes of the world on him. He's contracted to us and his value will be less due to his actions.

I can understand some people wanting him to stay, but condoning his behaviour is ridiculous.

to both of these posts. All of those posters who are saying that it's nothing are displaying some of the worst examples of blinkered vision imaginable. If Rooney had done this we'd all be calling for a public execution. Suarez has done this three times now, plus the Evra incident.

I was one of those saying we should get rid after the Ivanovic incident. I feel that even more strongly now. If we genuinely believe the idea that no one is bigger than the club then we have to take a stand over this. Regardless of whether or not you believe biting someone to be a major transgression (I'm firmly in the camp of it being an utterly unacceptable act), there are too many other issues with this to let it pass.

Firstly, he has totally let down his national team mates, management and fans on the biggest stage in the world. Aside from his appalling action, they have **** all chance of progressing without him.

Secondly, he has given a big two fingers to Brendan and the owners, who have backed him regardless of his previous behaviour on the basis that this wasn't his normal character. Well, apparently it is, and he doesn't give a ****. He is dragging the club's reputation through the mire, and giving the media and other fans all the ammunition they need to attack the club.

Thirdly, he has given two fingers to all us LFC fans. He had the backing of the majority of fans after the Evra incident, and then the Ivanovic incident. His thanks was to agitate for a transfer. And now, after a great season he lets everyone down again with this. And all the while he continues to moan about his treatment by the British media. Plus I don't think that he ever actually apologised for the Evra or Ivanovic incidents, so clearly has **** all remorse for his actions.

To those posters who think that we can't lose as he'll either sell for a load of money or have to stay, what if the manager and owners feel that he has to go, but we end up getting far less than his real value as a result of his actions? How does that mean we aren't affected?

I don't care how good a footballer he is right now, I just want the club's name not be to continuously dragged through the mud. I want players who want to play for the club, understand what it means to play for the club, and respect its values and traditions. I don't want us to become the most reviled club in the country because we continue to defend someone whose actions are indefensible.

I've nibbled quite a few birds necks in the past. I'll have to put a stop to that as I'll be up on crime watch quicker than an England World cup exit.

So, at the moment it's still a "bite", as in we think that's what it was, but we can't actually prove it. And I think that is the way Fifa will have to view it as well, unless there's pictures we haven't been shown yet? At worst, three match ban for an attempted headbutt is my guess.

Bit bored of the drama with him, but kind of love it at the same time. He's a ****ing nutter.

FFS i got excited when i saw you were the poster as I'm looking forward to your first review of the R

[Slinky Skills]

LFC call in expert to address Suarez mental issues. Cesar Millan will be based at Anfield for the coming season.

WTF.

So the Italians pre-bit Chiellini, thus framing Suarez.

**** me.

In terms of injury it's no big deal, but I don't think you can ignore the stigma attacked to biting, how it breaks social norms and etiquette. If he went round sticking his finger up opponents bums it wouldn't cause serious injury but it's still significantly different to most other forms of physical violence. The authorities have a duty of care to all players and they can rightly expect to be protected from being bitten on the field. Even if you don't buy that it's significantly different, it is clearly intended to hurt. Repeatedly committing acts that are done soley to hurt and injure others (and can't be construed as part of the game like poorly timed tackles) should be treated harshly.

Good post.

I think Chiellini was lucky not to get sent off for shoulder charging Suarez in the teeth.

Defos, it's a bite FFS it's as bad as spitting on someone.

Grown men don't that kind of ****.

BTW, does anyone think Suarez has got Rabies?

He must have with those gnashers.

[dom9]

It's only a bite for **** sake.

That's my view.

And do you reckon it's remotely acceptable?

[RedRum]

Yeah, at first I thought it was clear cut, but after watching again, there is certainly no proof. Could be nothing more than a clash of heads.

[Vermilion]

Well, i find what he does very silly, rather than grossly violent.

I also find the reaction overwhelming, it'll get as much news time or more as major disasters.

If he was inflicting Mike Tyson type damage with each bite, then i'd think differently, but i happen to believe his intent is not to really harm, otherwise he would with that set of gnashers.

[frank the tank]

Chiellini is a dirty cunt.......was all game...... But suarez is a stupid cunt.....


After all that though, when we line up against Southampton on 17th of August, do you want Rickie and Sturridge as our strike force or Suarez and Sturridge....... ****in no brainer

I agree with your observations but I find myself conflicted as to what the club should do next. In fact I'm completely flummoxed. I was happy to have got rid for the right price last summer, but he did a seemingly great job of redeeming himself during the season. And now this again.

The guy is a loon. His behaviour is comparable to that of El Hadj Diouf. And he was a total cunt, but less productive than Suarez.
