Wigan Build Up

[Craig_H]

What do people think will Suarez be picked for this one or will we leave him out to get his head around the situation?

I'm hoping he's fit to play and is able to take his frustration out on Wigan by banging in a few goals.

Bollocks to leaving him out. He should start. And be captain. And be carried out onto the pitch by his team mates.

This. Give him the armband. Up yours FA.

After what happened yesterday I'd be amazed if we didn't blitz them tonight.

Everyone is going to be supercharged.

I have no doubt he'll be picked. And he's going to have a stormer. Because that's the kind of guy he is.

I said the same thing earlier.

I think he'll raise his game I wish I could be there tonight.

I really hope Suarez and the rest of the team are well up for this game tonight. I hope we smash them.

Best post you ever made Craig!

If he isn't picked between now and the 14 day appeal period, it would in effect be a 12 game ban. I hope he's mentally strong enough to play tonight - just worried that he reacts to something and ends up with a red card.

However, I don't think he will be in the squad.

love it if he was captain

I can't wait for this game tonight, just to get away from thinking about all the Suarez ****. It'll be good to get back to the football for a while!

Suarez needed a break one way or another. I'd rather he was out rested than out injured with a hamstring or groin. Needs to play today though obviously, to get that aggression out.

All day I was thinking that of course he'll start and he'll play a blinder. But...

The more I think about it I don't know if he will be risked. If he is genuinely innocent (which I think he is) and he's going onto the pitch knowing the FA, the English media and most of the English public have it in for him, what sort of frame of mind will he be in? What happens when 5 mins in, he gets emptied from behind, the ref tells him to get up, the commentators accuse him of making the most of it (not that he'll hear that) and the crowd jeer him. How is he likely to react? The Wigan defenders will know they can't deal with him, so will no doubt do everything to wind him up (will full support from the ref), so how would anyone deal with this?

Tough call if you ask me as I wouldn't trust myself on a pitch in these circumstances. I'm obviously not the only one as I've read numerous posts in the Suarez thread about people being absolutely raging with the decision, so I imagine it's much worse for Luis.

Yea, but he's got 10 team mates on the pitch with him who are going to bulldoze through concrete walls to deliver the scoring chances on a plate for him. He's got the whole club behind him. And Wigan aren't that bad, apart from their **** of a chairman, no?
