We don't really know what Friend saw, if anything. He could just as well just have seen Ivan on the ground and then gone to tell them both to calm down, cause it looked like he didn't see anything and was focusing on the ball.

Yeah. I don't think anyone saw it first time, even from the TV angle. Not only was it not near the ball, it wasn't near the players who were last on the ball. DOubt Friend saw it, and even if he did, he'd be stupid to admit it. There's no chance that Suarez lucks his way out of a ban.

 

[Timurid]

Roma are fucking shit. They drew against Pescara 1-1. lolololololol

 

[FuturusX]

Where would you say spitting at somebody ranks?

IMO this incident is on a par with that. Both pretty harmless in the long term.

I agree. I think there is nothing worse than extreme violent conduct.

If Suarez receives a 7 game ban - I'd be okay with that mind you. He has to learn to control his anger. Which really is at the heart of his issues. He can keep the aggression...it's what drives him and makes him good. But perhaps that is difficult. He is who he is. Always playing on the edge.

Generally I want to see longer bans for violent conduct across the board.

 

[Splatt]

If Aguero didn't recieve a ban for stomping on Luiz's ass, then neither should Suarez.

 

[duckroll]

I guess you have to respect Saurez's appetite for goals.

Shit day of football.

[The_Hitcher89]

Logically, you're right. Aguero's escape needs to be an abberation though. For the good of the game.

 

[xintin]

If Aguero didn't recieve a ban for stomping on Luiz's ass, then neither should Suarez.

"not that kind of player" etc. etc.

 

[Meus Renaissance]

Where does Suarez fit the spectrum of controversial players past and present? Remember El-Hadji Diouf and Robbie Savage?

 

[Timurid]

:lol

 

[Sleeplessnights]

How are either of these two things relevant?

FA ignores some of the actions from some of the English players, did I really need to point it out?

He has history is pretty obvious too, wtf morsel.

 

[Mastadon]

Roma are fucking shit. They drew against Pescara 1-1. lolololololol

Lay off Pescara you cunt.

 

[The_Hitcher89]

He's worse than either of them, especially Savage.

Just below Ben Thatcher and Chris Morgan.

 

[Gareth Bale]

The Suarez bite is breaking news on Sky News.

Martin Lipton was ripping into him.

 

[Yurt]

C'mon guys it was a sensual bite.

 

[phaze]

WHAT The hell City. You had one job, one fucking job. : (

 

[Timurid]

Lay off Pescara you cunt.

Tbh Pescara would be a mid table club in the EPL. :lol

 

[Sage00]

The difference is Diouf and (to a much lesser extent) Savage are cunts on AND off the pitch. Suarez keeps his antics to the 90 minutes.

In South America it is considered a normal greeting to gnaw on someone.

 

[Milchmonster]

"By now, I don't care if I pay a 20, a 50 or a 100 % tax rate. I care for the ordinary people."
"It's not smart, because at one point you get caught. And it can't be the general idea to go to prison just to save a few Mark taxes."
Uli Hoeneß, 2002

"I know that it's stupid. But I pay full taxes.
Uli Hoeneß, 2005.

Makes you also reconsider if Bayern really is the best run club in the last 30-40 years. Now, there's always the doubt whether everything done at Bayern was (at least more or less) legal or not. There's the possibility Hoeneß did some dodgy deals to get Bayern to the top.

Wtf what? I'm asking what that has to do with the Fifa regulations on retrospective punishment. The rules are clear and it's not something you can bring externalities into, like national team bias or having a history. Neither factor has any relevance here.

 

[L1NETT]

Sorry if it has been mentioned, but saw a tweet saying "At least Suarez has now tasted champions league success"

Made me chuckle.

 

[near]

C'mon guys it was a sensual bite.

It reminded me of Primary School days, when a child is frustrated and took a bite or attempted to pinch the nearest kid.

 

[AndresON777]

I hope Pescara are relegated. They're shit because they don't start Quintero

 

[GorillaJu]

Sorry if it has been mentioned, but saw a tweet saying "At least Suarez has now tasted champions league success"

Made me chuckle.

Hahaha. That's good.

 

[Linius]

Looks like he tryed to bite Sturridge too

I think most will laugh at the sheer audacity of it rather than be angered

 

[SMD]

Imagine if this happened in the Prem, Sky would be doing crossovers with Embarrassing Bodies: http://www.guardian.co.uk/football/2004/feb/03/europeanfootball.sport

 

[Broder Salsa]

lol ref just gave a completely none penalty against us. What a terrible day.

 

[GorillaJu]

Well Sturridge was part of the Chelsea squad that won the CL. Pretty consistent with Linett's tweet.

 

[Mastadon]

I hope Pescara are relegated. They're shit because they don't start Quintero

Why have you got to hate?

In other, far more exciting news, I've started learning Spanish!

Nuestros elefantes no son blancos.

Gerrard and Carragher must look like half-eaten corn-on-the-cobs

Yes. We also call each other negros

 

[Gareth Bale]

You just got to take the multiple highs with the multiple lows!

 

[dc89]

Suarez genuinely needs therapy though.

He's nuts.

Our doctors can piece back the shattered Jack Rodwell's body and mid. We can fix Suarez. Txiki Pls.

WHAT The hell City. You had one job, one fucking job. : (

Dude. We suck.

Him having a history definitely plays a big factor, FA wouldn't want to give him less than 7 games like he got in the Dutch league. It's the same incident thus the same punishment.

 

[Vivalaraza]

So what actually happened in the Spurs game?

They didn't bottle it?

 

[Gareth Bale]

SSN said FA told them they will investigate it tomorrow

 

[rodvik]

Yes. We also call each other negros

This is known. It is amazing how much cultural education modern football gives us!

 

[dc89]

So what actually happened in the Spurs game?

They didn't bottle it?

City were in control and then we just fell apart. Can't say more really. Lescott played un front, srsly.

 

[arkon]

So what actually happened in the Spurs game?

They didn't bottle it?

They unbottled it. City capitulated with Kompany's worst defending in a City shirt in some time.

 

[Zabojnik]

One hour to go. LET'S DO THIS!

 

[Timurid]

Is Iaquinta even showing up to training anymore?

 

[Blablurn]

FIFA can be such a frustrating game.

 

[Zabojnik]

Is Iaquinta even showing up to training anymore?

I have no idea, tbh. I stopped caring two years ago. A goddamn salary leech if there ever was one.

 

[arkon]

Liverpool have improved significantly under Rodgers. It's clear they've worked through the teething problems from the start of his tenure.

don't remind me, just about to try out my all-Italy FUT squad.

Cagliari have reacted angrily to the “poor taste” tweet sent by Napoli President Aurelio De Laurentiis after today’s game.

Napoli won 3-2 in the final minute and De Laurentiis wrote on his Twitter account: “I dedicate this victory to Cellino, Astori and Nainggolan.”

It was a barbed comment aimed at a January transfer deal that collapsed, as President Massimo Cellino rejected Napoli’s offers for Radja Nainggolan and Davide Astori.

Cagliari responded with a statement on the official club website this evening.

“Cagliari Calcio expected more from De Laurentiis than this poor taste tweet, but that is evidently a quality the Partenopei President does not possess

Ahahahah
