Suarez gets a 10 game ban

I bet if Suarez was a Man Utd player you'd be wanting him banned for at least 20 games.

 

You have to judge the incident on what happened and not what if. Yes it could have been more dangerous but it wasn't.
I personally think a totally wreckless challenge is far worse as it could end someone's career. Roy keane made tackles with the intent to cause far more harm than a girly bite that didn't even break the skin. Don't get me wrong, I am no fan of Suarez, but 10 games is a tad harsh.

 

Alternatively, let him play with a muzzle

 

I suppose the point I am trying to make is that you can choose if you want to inflict serious damage on someone or not with
a bite and I don't think Suarez did as it would have been easy to bite harder. With a wreckless challenge,elbow etc you don't get to choose the outcome.

 

personally I think we are maybe looking at this the wrong way, I think on his past history and this incident he deserves a long ban, but also rather than reduce this ban in comparison to the horror tackles lets increase the bans for them instead (talking about the ones that could be career enders etc) and make the culprits seriously think twice.
I also think they should scrap the stupid rule of if the ref saw it or not, because he might of seen it but not properly, lets let the Fa review things after and then the thugs (eg Morgan incident)can be weeded out

 

Looking at it that way I think you're right to say bans aren't long enough as the players aren't affected badly like you or I would be if we did something wrong at work. The F.A should up their game so players have something to fear.

 

I don't normally defend Liverpool as I agree with the "always the victim" / "self-pity City" comparisons, but on this occasion I would prefer to have a go at the FA. They follow 'legal' procedures called precedents. They have a stated law that says VIOLENT CONDUCT - 3 MATCH BAN. They should not be able to make up a ban ad hoc to satisfy the whims of those wanting Suarez' blood. What they should have done is meted out the standard ban, THEN had the balls to say to Liverpool "we have done our bit, now what are YOU going to do in-house???".

That way, Liverpool could be judged on merit based on the additional punishment given for this awful, petty act.

 

You don't go for the ball with your teeth. The punishment is about right. Liverpool should get rid of Suarez, take the 30m and buy Torres back.

 

yeah. yeah ....... and what the hell would they do with the remaining £29.5m ?
