What Now for Shamed Liverpool & Uruguay Striker Luis Suarez: Caught Offside Writers Decide

Posted by

Would Liverpool, or any potential buying club, be wrong to employ a man who has now bitten an opponent three times?

Jordan Chamberlain:

Yes, and no. Liverpool messed up badly when they supported Suarez after his racist incident. But they’re effectively in a lose lose situation now, as if they criticise their forward, he has grounds to request a transfer. Their best bet is to keep quiet – and issue him a private final warning.

Mark Apostolou:

It’s a calculated risk worth taking. Liverpool can no longer stand by the player after his previous unsavoury incidents, guess he gets a clean slate at a new club.

Adam Davies:

No. He’s clearly an excellent footballer, and his club are run as a business which naturally wants to keep its best assets. However, I do think they should have come out with a stronger message against his actions – both the racist abuse towards Patrice Evra, which he’s still never apologised for, and the biting, which he has. They can criticise him while emphasising they want to constructively help him avoid making the same mistakes, still emphasising that he’s not for sale.

Glen Harrington:

Perhaps, but his ability makes him too difficult to resist for most – put it this way, would you honestly want him at your club? I think most people would say yes.

What’s wrong with Luis Suarez?! 

Jordan Chamberlain:

He’s a strange, strange man – who’s animalistic qualities make him the player he is. But I disagree with the ‘Give him help’ rhetoric. He’s a multi-millionaire. He should actively try and seek his own help, instead of blaming his countless faults on the media. He’s the most dislikeable footballer I have ever come across, but equally, one of the greatest.

Mark Apostolou:

He’s an animal pure and simple. Great player when he isn’t taking chunks out of players shoulders/arms.

Adam Davies:

I wouldn’t care to indulge in any amateur psychology, so all I’ll say is I have no idea. Biting people is just weird.

Glen Harrington:

He obviously some sort of mental issue. He seems normal enough in interviews etc. But the red mist descends when he plays, to a level we’ve not seen in a long time. I have to think players are trying to provoke him now, because they know how good he is and they know they could solve their problem by getting him sent-off. He needs help, before he does even further damage to his repuation as one of the greatest players in the world. Or what’s left of that reputation anyway…
