Suarez bit somebody to force through a transfer, since the minute he arrived at Liverpool he wouldn't shut up about wanting to play for Barca and he fu**ed around trying to get a transfer to Arsenal. I'd say that's behaving pretty badly and disrespecting his - at the time - current club. Still, because he was so good people kissed his arse. Just because Sterling isn't anywhere near as good doesn't mean he's behaved in a worse manner. I wouldn't lose sleep if he leaves but it's crazy seeing the difference in abuse that Sterling and Suarez got for similar things.
Haha I wouldn't say he bit people to force a move mate, that's a bit far-fetched. The Arsenal thing pissed me off too, but what he didn't do was to start trying to force it half way through the season. The transfer window opened, he said he wanted to go, we put it to bed and he got on with it. I didn't like the way it became so public, but every player is entitled to think about their future and look around during the transfer window. Raheem and his agent have been openly disrespectful about the club since February.
And yes, it does make a difference how good a player is. Suarez agitated for Arse, pissed us around for a few weeks, then signed a new contract, got his ehad down and nearly won us the league. When he was on the pitch, he gave it everything he had for the club and his team mates. Can you say the same about Raheem? He has looked half arsed during a lot of games since Feb.
I wouldn't say either of them covered themselves in glory when it comes to wanting to leave the club, but my my personal opinion is that Raheem has gone about it far far worse than Suarez.
Edit: Regarding Barca move, he simply said it's been his boyhood dream, like most South American players, was no secret, but I don't think it disrespected the club.
