Luis Suarez bit someone and people were clamouring for him to be forgiven so long as he was still able to play for us.....but because Sakho isn't world class I guess the standard is different.
Not true mate, I think Sakho is one of the best CBs in the league, but as Si says there's a level of discipline expected. When he was dropped by Brendan I was disappointed with his behaviour on leaving the stadium but he apologised and therefore earned a second chance.
The thing with apologies they're meaningless unless your actions indicate you were truly sorry and in behaving again in a disrespectful way towards his manager and team-mates then he really nullifies that apology in my book. So I'd understand if Jürgen found it very difficult to swallow another plea for forgiveness.
In terms of Suarez I saw that completely differently, I saw that as a lad who was wound up so tight by all the media attention and the Evra crap that he just snapped a little. I personally see that as less of an offence than what Mama did because in the heat on the moment we all can do a pretty stupid thing but to be late 3 times is consistent and much more time to consider your actions if you know what I mean. Also Suarez was in a strange way of looking at things was doing his 'crime' in the line of duty, where Mama clearly wasn't.
So to me the two aren't actually comparable, perhaps to you they are.
