I agree there are worse things that happen on a football pitch, but to the best of my recollection I don't think anyone has reapetedly done the same thing after already having two sizeable bans for it. The biting is bad, doing it a third time and at a world cup, is just madness. | |

The intent is there when some players try to take another's off with their elbow.
I disagree, trying to physically hurt someone, with whatever part of your body is wrong. Some may be seeing it in the context of a fight, where biting someone isn't deemed "fair" IMO, and not the actual injury being caused. All equal, just one is frowned upon as not being the right thing to do. | |

I don't disagree with you. I think he has a serious mental problem myself. | |

Just curious, but how would you feel towards Suarez if 'biting' was substituted with 'spitting'?
No physical damage to opposition, but still wrong and pretty disgusting. I know I'd be pretty mad if he wasn't harshly dealt with after his third offence. | |

Yep, the guy's definately got issues. | |

Who knows what diseases you could catch off him biting you | |

I agree
He needs the book thrown at him | |
| |
| Suarez. on 09:51 - Jun 25 with 1314 views | Neath_Jack |
Same, he would need to be banned.
My point is people are acting like he's some kind of monster, like he took to the field with a machete and chased half the Italian players around the pitch. When in fact he barely broke the skin of another players shoulder. But lets see some parity in that any player found deliberately found guilty of going out to injure another player, by whatever means, gets the same punishment. | |

I doubt he's be playing football if he had any sort of disease that could be passed on by blood/bodily fluids mate. | |

The funniest things about this so far are Uruguayans (team, manager, media) attempting to play this down and blaming the British press for it, and Liverpool fans across the internet attempting to defend the indefensible. To be fair, they've had plenty of practice at it over the last few years. | |

A great striker in the modern era who can do it at the highest level.
However as a human being and sportsman he is base.
Its not so much the biting but the way in which he tries to deflect blame.
Its the worst from of cheating, it stinks and Liverpool should do the right thing and rid the Premier League of this stain on humanity.
Uruguayan papers are claiming he s a victim.
Here we go again | |

Agree with all of that Perch.
I know you've got a soft spot for Liverpool, living up there, must be incredibly frustrating that a player with so much talent is also so self-destructive. | |

The problem we have here is that of influence,especially on younger people.
They may mimic or copy the actions of their sports heroes because that's what they do.
If it was a lower league match not so bad but the World Cup FFs? You can't get a bigger stage than that...FIFA MUST ACT NOW as he is bringing the game into disrepute. [Post edited 25 Jun 2014 10:03]

I do after they appeared to sort him out. Now he s back to type or so it seems and he will cause the club a lot of grief. LIKE OUR CLUB its always club first not player . I d suggest many Reds fans are in despair but most will back him -mainlyu because he is so vital for them
What they have t ask is whether the stench he brings to the pitch and the consequent abuse to the club is it worth it. Madrid were reported to be offering mega mega money for him so maybe John Henry will have the guts to say, we re selling Suarez because he brings our great club into disrepute, I wont hold my breath.
Anyway, I m only concerned about Wilf staying and having Gomis as his chum | |

Spot on Richie, club before player every time. Lets be fair as much as I don't like Liverpool, the name is revered worldwide and him being linked to it is dragging it into the gutter | |

Assuming he kicked you as well during the game, Foot and Mouth is a strong possibility! | | | |

Brynnie makes a good point. Biting is a foul, disgusting thing and Suarez deserves a lengthy ban.
But anyone who sets out to deliberately hurt another player deserves a lengthy ban too.
Lets face it, the FA, FIFA and any other governing body should be cracking down on this at every level.
But they are a bunch of cowards. Every week of the season we see serious foul play, cheating and players badgering the referee.
It needs to be stopped, for the good of the game, for the good of the people who play it and mostly for the good of impressionable kids who imitate their idols. | |

I was bitten several times during my job but for a footballer to do it to a fellow pro is the most insulting thing after spitting. Its not the injury it causes but the insult.
A butt , a kick the odd scratch is part of the game-or used to be- but biting in football ffs.
Used to be a problem with rugby front rows but brutal bans and TV cameras everywhere sorted that out
South Americans are clearly into insulting their fellow man and frankly they are the lower end of humanity | |

It's his third occasion, a fine is meaningless it, that's just pocket money to him. It will be unmissable when someone attempts to defend his actions, good luck with that.
With all the furore being alleged with the 2022 tournament, FIFA will, and should, throw the book at him. This couldn't have come at a better time for them.
Once is bad, twice is stupid but three is unbelievable.    | |

One thing has just struck me about his biting. We are all [rightly] horrified that Suarez has bitten another victim, yet when we hear about boxers or rugby players doing it no-one seems to bat an eyelid.
Odd. | | | |

I don't know, I seem to remember Tyson having a few issues with the media when he munched on Holyfield? | | | |

I disagree. I am always horrified when someone stoops so low!! | |

As long as it is not a cook-book...
This is his third offence and he has done it in front of the world. He deserves the highest sanction that FIFA can give within their rules. | |
