Has Suarez done it again?

Liverpoolphil said:
So now any red card offence playing for international team should also effect the player playing in club competitions ?

Gomes and Xavier assaulting the ref and Lino in the Euro tournament - 6 and 12 month international bans only - didn't effect their club

Pepe sent off for serious assault - pushing then kicking and player in the face then raking his boots down the person back - 10 games club ban only , WC - elbow in the face then a headbutt - 4 game international ban only !

If a player is going to commit an offence on international duty then that is where he must be punished as is the current set precedence from FIFA - to change that will now open a can of worms and lawyer will rip the ban apart.

Your totally on your own, your bias towards the interest of your club and not the protection of other players he would be subjected to in the PL is beyond words, its a selfish attitude with no thought towards what he has done in a football arena not once, twice but three times!

I'm out!

I tend to agree with this, although I guess some offences might be seen as so heinous that any ban should be wider-ranging. Not sure this quite falls into that category, despite all the hand-wringing going on.

Clubs can get compensation from national associations if a player is injured on international duty. Do you think similar should apply here?

This is how poor FIFA are

Questions - does it include transfer activity - Answer : we don't know

The same FIFA that did of course ban Barcelona from buying players

First time a player has ever been banned from playing for his club from an incident based on international duty - dangerous precedence being set by FIFA

Liverpool have to appeal this surely.

How they can be the ones that suffer the most is beyond me.

If he got jailed for an incident that happened whilst on International duty, would he be let out to play for Liverpool at the weekends? I would suggest not.
Harsh as it is on the Club, the punishment is to prevent the player doing what he wants to do- play football.
Then, just maybe, he will have time to reflect on his actions and what might happen if he does it again

Once again his ability is entering the argument. If Suarez was a squad player hardly anyone would be making noises.
But because he's Liverpool's best player the whining has started....

Be thankful he didn't get banned for life.
 
I find his refusal to take responsibility for his actions worrying.


There should be absolutely no lessening of the punishment due to this. he cant even admit that he has done wrong.

Should have headbutted him then kicked him in the head - would have got a lesser ban

Ha just accept it, he's a disgrace to both club and country. Rio Ferdinand got a ban for 8-9 months for missing a drugs test.
suarez gets 4 month ban for biting someone for the 3rd time.
You do the maths and see if 4 months is enough.

Would you like to stick to the subject instead of posting cheap digs about people :thup:

I disagree.

I think this is exactly the attitude FIFA should be talking. It's sets out FIFA's stall that if any act brings shame and condemnation against football as a game, they should absolutely ban players from league football as well as international games if it happens at international level. I would also argue if this had happened in a league match, a similar ban should be in effect.

What he has done has no place in the game of football, at any level, grass roots, club or country. This is the stance FIFA are taking.

My son knows is naughty/unacceptable/wrong to bite someone. He's 4 years old. What Suarez has done is wrong, plain and simple. He has shown no remorse, even tried to brush it off, and replied on his solicitor and even the president of his home country to try and bail him out.

You could tell by his reaction at the end of the game, how he trudged off, while the rest of his team were celebrating, knowing he'd kicked his last ball in the tournament.

I think FIFA have taken absolutely the correct approach and if anything have been very lenient with the punishment handed out.

There is a precedent set for drug taking and tests - precedent set by all Sports Bodies

Cannot be used in any comparison.

So do you believe they have now set the precedent that any offence that happens during any competitions he punishment is valid for all forms

Ie - banned in the prem also for CL and Internationals ? And Vice Versa - banned from internationals also banned from club football ?
