KopTalk.com Forums Football Liverpool FC Forum Luis Suarez: I lost my balance

Barca Sporting Director 'Suarez had the honour to come out and apologise for his actions and now it's time for him to begin the recovery process,' Zubizarreta said at the Nou Camp.


Ivan Racitic (Barca's new signing) 'To have the character and strength to apologise in front of the world shows what a noble person he is,'

Makes you wonder Fifa ban him from everything to do with CLUB football, Except [oops] transfers.

What the fvck

the four month ban will be reduced to two months by the end of the week, that way Suarez will be available for Barcelona's first game of the season.

They just want to clean up his image before they buy him. Sanchez not wanting to come complicates things I BET.

Good as gone? Depressing. Apparently, even Man City are now to join the race to sign a player, so beyond the pale, that he has to be shown the door from LFC. Everyone says he's a disgrace and everyone wants to sign him.

I hope JH can see through the fog to stand firm.

If he's still at LFC next year, I'll be delighted. The fans that wish him gone are, in my opinion, deluded, if they think we can replace him.

Let Barca praise his nobility all they like. Let Suarez himself agitate to his heart's content, but let him stay at LFC and repeat the performance of last year.

I'm tired of hearing about how we must concede to his departure. Let's not forget, his latest fall did not, anyway, occur in an LFC shirt. Why are our fans so worked about it? He's been fully reformed for the previous 8 months, whilst he played for LFC. If the ban is reduced (because Barca wish it so) so much the better.

If we sell our best player to a CL rival, or worse, to a PL rival, we are sending the worst possible message out to our own squad. Until he is no longer our best player, we have to fight to keep him at all costs. Signing (even) 5 £25m players is not going to compensate for the loss.

If he stays, I think we'll have a lot to look forward to next year. If he leaves, we'll be lucky to make top 4.

The silence from LFC on all this is deafening.
I wonder why?

This silence can only be a good thing. Abiding their time and not giving in to the bullying of Fifa and those [oops] classless clubs.

I can take the silence if the stance is the same as last year. As fans, we need to make it clear that we want him stay. As long as we keep saying he's betrayed us, and act like a load of girls' blouses just because he's carried on with the same behaviour that he exhibited before we signed him, I think we give FSG the green light to sell him.

Suarez is a mercenary professional, super talent, that gives 100% on the field. Demanding that he should possess other qualities that make him more fit to where the red of LFC is to completely miss the point of why we hired him. The moralising and the hypocritical posturing is making me feel nauseas - because it will cost us the services of a world class player. We are a football club not a cub scout outfit.

He's not tried to destroy the career of another player, he's not done anything to merit the opprobrium that now surrounds him remaining at the club. It's so bloody annoying......

Good points D, but, I think you'd have to say that this was coming with or without the bite. He's wanted Barca all along.
Personally I'd love to keep him, probably the best player I've ever watched in a red shirt but holding onto him was always going to be difficult.

Can't deny though, theres something not right about how this is happening.

There are posters on here that are worrying about whether or not he's apologised to BR (we don't actually know that he hasn't, anyway) when, his remaining here is the only prescient issue. Who cares what he says to the media? If we hold him to contract, he'll have to lump it as he did last year.

The atmosphere of resignation is shameful on our great club. His biting fixation is such a non-issue but we've allowed it to dominate our evaluation of what he brings to the club.
