That's really harsh in my opinion... What does this mean for his future in England? Summer transfer??

That video pretty much says nothing. Most of it are just clips of the modern game.  Every single player that plays football has made A FEW late tackles like that or worse. From an objective point of view, none of those tackles seemed to be truly intentional or outright irresponsible. I think people judge Suarez the way they do because his antics are petty (biting, hair pulling, diving). It seems to be mostly subjective, and pride just really gets in the way when it comes to fairness.  The hair pulling was a one time thing and he didn\'t do it during play so I don\'t know how exactly and how much we can judge him for it. I guess the argument against the ban is that this biting incident isn\'t violent or severe enough for 10 matches. I agree that it\'s definitely less severe than some tackles we see today, but Suarez has had a prior ban on biting and deserves more than before. I\'m not sure why Defoe never got a ban and why the number of matches for a ban seem to be so arbitrary.Do the child-like tantrums of rafael not deserve scrutiny of his character? I guess we judge Suarez so heavy and Rafael not so heavy is because one makes more of an impact in the game than the other.What about the countless times shirts are pulled in games? Shirt pulling is always intentional, late tackles aren\'t. Some late tackles are more irresponsible than others and I don\'t think I\'ve ever seen Luis doing one. Basically I think there might be some exaggerations in the judgment of his character. I\'m not completely disagreeing with some of you. I\'m just trying to get a real assessment of his character. Some of you are sure of his nature, and I\'m not sure how. I\'ve seen players doing worse in games and in their career than Suarez in that video and still get less scrutiny for it.

Dude, watch it again.http://www.dailymotion.com/video/xzc214_luis-suarez-brutal-compilation_sport#.UXpjPrW-18EIf you really think that none of those tackles seem to be truly intentional or outright irresponsible, you should think to see an ophthalmologist...Suarez has great skills, he could be an awesome player, sadly he just act like a piece of S.

I understand why you might dislike Suarez as a person, but using 'dangerous tackles' as one of your reasons for disliking him is wrong IMO. 

@ Gustavo

How is dangerous tackles a bad reason to not like someone? I'm almost 100% positive that you have NEVER played the actual sport, because you don't know how none of those tackles feel like. They're dirty, they hurt, and it causes players to get really angry. Football is the "beautiful game", not UFC. How do Suarez's actions justify our beautiful sport? You can't even consider Suarez's playing style as UFC, because he slaps, bites, pulls hair, and goes for cheap shots (all characteristics of a fucking female).

We all know that you are only defending him because he is an AMAZING player, who literally has your team in the palm of his hands. But you have no real reason in defending him because haters have all the reasons in the world to hate. It is clear Suarez doesn't need your help defending him because he brings all this to himself on purpose. It's not like he has no idea people would hate him if he bites, cheats, and kicks other players. He knows and is fully aware what people will say, but obviously doesn't care.

tdot2barca.... what a speech!

Seems like Liverpool play better without suarez.They Absolutely demolished newcastle. Let's just see if liverpool can keep this up.

"(all characteristics of a ******* female)."

You deserve no respect after saying something like this.

Anyway, dangerous tackles is a good reason for disliking someone. What I was trying to say is that Suarez doesn't commit 'dangerous tackles'. He is known for being very deterministic and so often commits "late tackles", but not necessarily 'dangerous tackles'. I have never seen Luis Suarez go full blown in on a tackle with the intent of hurting someone.

Yes Suarez is dirty but some of it is actually harmless. People have every right to dislike Suarez, but when you ask them exactly why, they tend to slightly exaggerate their reasons.

"I have never seen Luis Suarez go full blown in on a tackle with the intent of hurting someone."

Really? I don't think you've been watching him much, then, because I've seen him stamp on people, foul them needlessly, and oh, yeah, bite someone.

"Yes Suarez is dirty but some of it is actually harmless."

Only some, eh? And why, exactly, does that make the dirtiness any better anyway? What a pointless case to make.

"People have every right to dislike Suarez, but when you ask them exactly why, they tend to slightly exaggerate their reasons."

Not really, it's just that we get apologists such as yourself trying to pretend that Suarez hasn't done half the stuff WE KNOW HE HAS DONE BECAUSE IT IS ON CAMERA, and arguing that it doesn't matter, or is 'harmless'.

I would like to see the eye poke(s) and stamp(s) on camera, if anyone has a link.

"Really? I don't think you've been watching him much, then, because I've seen him stamp on people, foul them needlessly, and oh, yeah, bite someone."

I said tackle. Still no reading comprehension, I see.

"Only some, eh? And why, exactly, does that make the dirtiness any better anyway? What a pointless case to make."

It doesn't. It makes it obvious that people exaggerate when they say Suarez should be banned from the BPL or from football all together.

"Not really, it's just that we get apologists such as yourself trying to pretend that Suarez hasn't done half the stuff WE KNOW HE HAS DONE BECAUSE IT IS ON CAMERA, and arguing that it doesn't matter, or is 'harmless'."

Only thing Suarez has done that deserves to be mentioned is the biting.

After 5 mins of searching. As usual, Gustavo doesn't know what the fu.ck he's talking about.

"I said tackle. Still no reading comprehension, I see."

I don't care what you said. Just because these are not tackles does not excuse them, and you have no point to make. Do yourself a favor and STFU before you make yourself look any more stupid.

"It doesn't. It makes it obvious that people exaggerate when they say Suarez should be banned from the BPL or from football all together."

Incorrect. It makes it obvious that you couldn't give two craps what the truth is; you're going to pretend it is less than it actually is, because you don't want your star player's talent to be absent from your team. You care more about that than football, apparently.

"Only thing Suarez has done that deserves to be mentioned is the biting."

And the eye-gouging. And the stamping. And the hand-balling. And the diving. And the casual racism. And the refusal to admit wrongdoing.

FYI: you're going to looooose this... ;)

The only thing there that is bad is the eye poke, which is why I asked for footage of it, since pictures are less reliable. Seems you couldn't find any.

The first picture is just a late tackle. From the footage of it, there is no way you can conclude that he was trying to hurt the player rather than going for the ball. Compare the Callum McManaman challenge on Massadio Haidara, for example.

You honestly can't be serious if you think you can say that that 'stamp' wasn't an accident.

I'm not really sure why you've added the third one.

The kick was an accident. Jesus Christ.

People who prematurely condemn a player without thoroughly analyzing his accusations are the ones who don't care about the truth.

I agree with the ban, I agree with the duration of the ban(not the arbitrary nature of it), I just don't agree he is actually bad enough to be banned from the EPL or football.

As long as LFC is still LFC, I couldn't care less if he or any other player left the club.

@Gustavo The only true words you said from all your comments is "I agree with the ban, I agree with the duration of the ban(not the arbitrary nature of it), I just don't agree he is actually bad enough to be banned from the EPL or football." Other than that it's just bs in my opinion. Suarez is mentally ill and I think he is doing it for fame, but he's doing it the wrong way around..

And simply because I feel a wriggle-out-of-it-by-saying-he-wanted-video....

Can't find one of the eye-gouge, but, seriously, does anyone other than a horrendously biased Liverpool fan really need one by this point?

LOL. Wow, I was too late! Gustavo ACTUALLY said just what I figured he would!

There's just no helping some people.

I've been playing football for long time and haven't seen even a kid biting during a match. Not to mention that it's a professional league and millions of people are watching it.. I agree with not banning him from football forever but I wouldn't like to have a player like him in the EPL. He should get medicated first and forget about fame. It's a psychological matter.

See, here's the thing: you could take any one of these instances (or the dozens more from each season), and say that they are an accident. You could even take a couple of them and call it unfortunate.

But when there are literally dozens of instances, every season, that one simply needs to use Google to find... it takes a particularly dishonest person to keep on saying they're accidents when they keep. On. Happening.

Just admit that he's a little shit, and that no-one is exaggerating anything. Otherwise you're just looking stupid.

If you are supporting his act as a Liverpool fan you should think about it the other way around. Suarez is just bring hate to a decent club like Liverpool with good history and if i were a Liverpool fan i wouldn't defend him.
