This Lugano asshole needs his own thread.
George Best.....
These Uruguayans really do stick together don't they quite admirable in a way.

Every manager will defend their top players. It's just part of the game. Don't pretend united wouldn't do the same if he was at our club as we have defended players who did worse then take a nibble out of opponents...
sponsors. They know the appeal that footy has to kids and the number of kids that have seen what the animal doneAdd the English press, the Caf, and ESPN maybe, but honestly, who else would give a shit?

You need that type of mindset when you are a country of about 600 people trying to compete with nations 20 or 30 times your size.These Uruguayans really do stick together don't they quite admirable in a way.
Par for the course with him, kicking a Dawson on the ground, belly punt to Parker, gouging Parkers eye, stamping on people achilles tendons.To me the worst part of all of this is that he snuck up on Chellini from behind and Chellini had no way of defending himself or protecting himself.
Who is to say that Suarez doesn't choose plant a boot in someone's back from behind which is a far more dangerous action and as a result a player gets paralyzed.
Sure I am talking about a remote and extreme theoretical action, but if that did happen and FA did nothing they would be sued for failing to provide a safe work environment.
That's exactly where this is currently at I can't imagine that anyone would feel at ease playing against him currently.
I think he should receive a lengthy ban and I think he should not be allowed to return to any football until he is psychiatrically cleared to do so.
I would rather be Kung foo kicked than bitten. What's it got to do with pain? Would you rather be slapped around the face or spat on on your face? I know which I would rather.
No, no, it isn't; not when having a siege mentality means forgiving just about anything, even if it disgraces you all. It's a really limited, and limiting, way to act & think.
That one always makes me so angry! Why did he dive in like that and then the cheek to feign injury.Par for the course with him, kicking a Dawson on the ground, belly punt to Parker, gouging Parkers eye, stamping on people achilles tendons.
Then there is this.
By this rationale I can spit in your face and call you a racist chant, but hey, a tackle is much worse. No physical harm can be gotten from a spit or a chant?
All this needs is for Gus Poyet to stick his beak in.
He hit the man in the chest not the face.The fact that a kick to the face could potentially cause severe injury, including brain damage. A slap or being spat on, I'd rather be spat on, but a kung fu kick is much more severe then a slap.
No, his last match was either yesterday, or the day before.Is he still providing punditry for ITV? It's surely only a matter of time until he defends him and blames the meeja.
I don't understand the rush to excuse Suarez for his behaviour by comparing it to completely irrelevant situations like actual assault or a bad tackle or saying the bloke needs help and should therefore be excused.....
If he needs help so badly then why didn't his club get him that help after he bit Ivanovic, his second offence for crying out loud. Just seems like everyone involved with Liverpool and Uruguay are enabling him, deflecting blame for his actions on other people and generally pandering to his every whim because of how good he is at football.
If Liverpool really think he has a problem and really wants him to get help then they won't raise a stink if FIFA come down hard on him, neither will they try to excuse his behaviour. Accept whatever punishment is forthcoming and send him for the help he needs, but the reality is they don't do that, everyone involved with Scouseland will try to paint poor little Luis as the victim instead of asking him to accept some responsibility for his actions for once in his life.
He bit someone, that is never acceptable in any other walk of life but since it happened on a football pitch and was done by a talented individual people are ready to dismiss it as a nothing matter whereas if it was some normal everyday person who randomly bit a coworker, the reaction would be very different.
They should support Suarez because he is a Liverpool/Uruguay player but neither camp should act as if he's done nothing wrong when he clearly has.
But former West Brom defender Lugano told the BBC: "What incident? The pictures don't show anything. They show an approximation."
I bet he gets away with it, or at most gets a 3 game ban and it all gets forgotten, again.
Now lets just wait how FIFA is going to decide. I think the punishment has to include the clear message, that any further incident like this, has very very very harsh consequences. Only if you tell him, that his career might be over if he does that again, he might stop.
You want me to quote a specific case? Hmmm. I thought it was obvious. Maybe not.
I have spent a few horrid weeks as a court reporter and more than once heard defence lawyers saying it was a first offence and there was nothing to point towards reoffending, I took that to mean they were relevant factors.
Obviously, reality is photoshopped.
I think it's more important for them that he help them win football matches by playing and scoring.
This is just a theory though.
I think it's a bit unfair on Uruguay that a decision hasn't been made yet. They are going to need time to decide what/how to play without him, and FIFA just pissing about with the decision isn't helping. It's fair to say he'll miss the Colombia match though.
Hopefully Columbia do the competition a favour and knock them out.Lets all laugh at Uruguay.
So what, is he 9? Is this a playground grudge exercise? Again, the English press has become a ridiculous excuse for "I don't like this reporting that affects me, etc etc, ignore the English conspiracy!" It's nonsense. Our broadsheets are amongst the best in the world and spend the vast majority of their time pointing out our own inadequacies. I hate our gutter press as much as the next guy (I've even written a sitcom pilot about it!) but the legacy of our tabloids - who no one takes as reputable - is now being used to slander and obfuscate both genuine investigative journalists (FIFA/Blatter etc) and quite legitimate questions of on field actions (Suarez)...You said earlier [about our respective media] "They're both as bad as each other"..Well I call bullshit on that. We'd at least admit it happened. And if any didn't, the rest would pile on to correct them.
Reality has a well known anti-Suarez bias.
