Has Suarez done it again?

Surely FIFA will only cover an international ban. Any other action would need to be sanctioned by UEFA and the PL unless Liverpool take a view to impose their own ban.

All depends on what ban they enforce - I'm not sure UEFA or FA can act further
 
Liverpool may look at £40 - 50 mil offers now, whereas a few hours ago it would probably have took an £80 mil one to get him. I really don't see them wanting to keep him now, but there is no way they will sack him; not with that kind of money at stake.
 
Yes they can impose a ban worldwide but never done it for violent conduct

Drugs and match fixing
 
So having read all 243 posts and counting. I think this is the most civil thread on here in sometime, and with the subject matter I'm massively impressed!


my thoughts are that he'll get a ban that encompasses the qualifiers and actual copa America. Believe 24 games was mentioned which should do It.


As much as FIFA could ban him domestically I don't think they will. He needs to see someone, even if it's just a pr stunt, Liverpool will be on full damage limitation, I'd expect them to fully support his recovery but I'm sure they'll make a public statement saying his behavious is unacceptable. Fine at club level for damaging name of the club and they'll bite (couldn't resist) the hand of of the first £50m plus offer that comes their way.


As has been mentioned, people have done a lot worse and still had a career in football so he will alwyas find a club somewhere.

If you believe the press that it was a two horse race between Barca and Real to sign him and paying £80m+ to get the release clause, do you still think they'll want him
 
Thats 3 occasions when the player bitten, has pretty much open licence to knock seven bells out off the horrible little mutt.

Surely instead of showing your bite marks to the ref, your natural instinct would be to pummel him?
 
Cantona was not a repeat offender. If he'd repeatedly assaulted opposing supporters, then yes I would have.
Keane did not go out to end anyone's career. Hurt them, yes, end their career, no ...................... and you know that.


Slime.

The Palace fan that Cantona kicked was also shouting racial abuse from the stands, doesn't make it excusable but more understandable.

HÃ¥land the player Keane injured was forced to retire due to an injury to his other leg not the injury that Keane caused which was payback for a challenge that HÃ¥land did on Keane that put Keane out for months and eventually cut his career short.

Once again does not excuse him but does make it more understandable.
 
Yes they would.

I think any club would but would they be prepared to fork out for the release clause. Quote from Suarez (according to Lineker on BBC) -" these things happen in the box" and "I got a knock in my eye". Of course these are only attributed to Suarez via media and Lineker only relaying this but hardly helping his case.

Short answer, yes.
Spain dont seem to care about players image so much. He'll still sell shirts, rightly or wrongly as don't wanna massive debate the "he's a racist card" won't matter to them in the slightest. IMO, Madrid are more likely at a knock down price as I think barca were gonna use it as a way if offloading Sanchez.
 
? Is that a quote from someone

gary lineker has just read out a few quotes from luis given to the Uruguayan media.


included,

"These are just things that happen out on the pitch. It was just the two of us inside the area and he bumped into me with his shoulder.

"There are things that happen on the pitch and you should not make such a big deal out of them."
