The Zidane reference is completely different on a whole number of levels, not least because Materazzi called his sister a whore or something like that.. I'd have butted him as well. Luis has done this 3!!!!!!!!!! times largely unprovoked and has now exposed LFC to a complete shitstorm when we should be looking forward to a new season. He's fu**ed us, his country and himself and will still probably have the temerity to shake the boat and force a move way he did last year. As supreme and brilliant a player he is I wash my hands
I don't doubt that he's created a sh*t storm but you have to remember how precarious a point in our recovery we actually are. Even assuming we offloaded him for 60-70 million, name all the players you want to replace him and there's no guarantees they'll settle in, never mind be as prolific and you also have to remember that the current LFC side is built around servicing Suarez. Right now there are too many risks associated with us
not having him at the club. It may all be a moot point anyway because we don't know what, if any, sanction FIFA will take. It might be anything from a three game ban to two year ban from World Football, both club and country. Instead of thinking in terms of do we want him, we need to be thinking in terms of we hope he gets off lightly. If he does, by the time the season starts this will probably have all blown over in the media anyway, especially if he starts the season for us in prolific form.
