As long as the friendlies are official matches, which is good because then Uruguay can't just organise 9 friendlies in a day.

Harsh on Liverpool.

Yep, it's hard to argue against the punishment though. I really hope this doesn't affect our season too much. At least we can plan ahead knowing Suarez is going to be here.
that pretty much bans him from the world for ever or almost assuming Uruguay get beaten in the second round that 8 games left til the next world so if the get knocked after 3or 4 games you can see where this is going.
edit : maybe not.
can we have fourth place now plz
Don't agree. If you employ a maniac, you're bound to get burned by it at some point. They had an opportunity to cut ties before.

There are no copa america qualifiers so this basically bans him from the copa america next year

"Unfair. Totally unfair. Poor luis."
You still get cl football every year and an FA cup.
Absurd post. You don't just 'cut ties' with one of the best strikers in the world. Striker is such a difficult position to replace.

-Freeze his wages for the duration of his ban
-Fine him if legal
-Gentleman's agreement with Barca for them to sign him in January
-Buy the replacement now
-Don't let him play for us again
-Sell him in January, passing FFP
Best-case scenario which would still bite us in the arse if Barca decided not to buy him.
I'm not entirely sure why the fact that it happened at the World Cup factors into the punishment. It's ridiculously unfair (victims etc) that only Suarez and Uruguay can appeal when we've been hit just as hard

Liverpool know exactly what he's like and they took the risk in keeping him last summer. I find it very hard to have sympathy when its not like this is a first time offence. He was banned for biting when they signed him, he bit Branna, he got banned for being racist and he now hes bitten someone else...
If all of that before this event isn't enough to make Liverpool think "this guy is a ticking time bomb" then their own fault for being so naive.
The ban is lenient, he should consider himself lucky he didn't get a year

Wont happen but it would be hilarious if Liverpool took a stand and put him in the reserves for a year.
"In Uruguay there is not the moral outrage that the English press deals with this issue so there is no question that once his ban is served he will be selected by Uruguay. He is out of the Copa America next year and will probably miss the first of the World Cup qualifiers on the road to Russia.
How do you replace the league's top scorer? With the league's second top scorer.

Fabregas does now he has joined the people's club.
I'm laughing so hard right now because this so fucking harsh on Liverpool
what the fuck did they do :lol :lol :lol
not only did they lose their best player, but now they're kinda forced to sell him for significantly less later on. He won't be match fit, like Llorente in our case.

Obviously they agree with you. It's called playing with fire -- not selling him after the Ivanovic debacle showed he was not rehabilitated and would strike again. They got burned.

Colombia just got an even bigger chance to bear Uruguay. And to not get bitten.
That's slightly revisionist. Everyone thought he had been rehabilitated at the end of last season, hence the awards he won. It looked like he had learnt from the past and kept his head down.

if a Sanchez plus any decent money offer is still on the table, i'd jump at it, LFC cant afford to get dragged through this shit again
Or does Collymore know nothing

It genuinely seemed like he'd calmed down last season. He still had that edge to his game, but none of this bullshit, then as soon as he spends a month without Pieters reminding him that he isn't a fucking 3 year old, he fucks up again. Probably the last straw for the club and we'll try and get rid as soon as possible. Hopefully we replace him before selling him, because that ban is a killer. That's 2 rounds of League Cup matches, 4(?) CL group games and 9 league matches without him, which could easily end our season before he even comes back

lol right. He will play for Liverpool starting November 1st.
Ask Stevie G and he will probably defend Suarez too.

I don't think I'll get my 7-9 matches (club + international). I mean the +4 months technically isn't a number of club games he's banned for. There just happen to be a lot of games in that time. But I think they'll wait until he misses 1 club game and then settle it as a loss.

Fifa update on #Suarez: "A transfer can happen this summer." So "4-month ban on all football activity" does not preclude transfer #lfc #fcb

Wenger's time is now. 40,000,002
yes, but why? For one or two months of football? They'd all rather wait till January. It makes no difference.

Who the fuck wants to buy a player banned for 2 and a half months (maybe 2 for a Spanish team since La Liga starts a little later then the PL iirc)
All they have to do is wait til January and they'll get him at a cut-price

Liverpool should have Suarez clean toilets at the training ground or something. If they're paying him they might as well get their money's worth.
