POLL: How should Liverpool deal with Luis Suarez?

indicated he’d be surprised if the club sold him on account of today’s incident.

FOLLOWING THE BITING incident earlier today, there is much debate about how Liverpool should react to Luis Suarez’s indiscretion.

Some Liverpool fans have even called on the club to sell their star striker, who issued an apology in the hours after Graeme Souness suggested that Suarez was in “last chance saloon” territory.

Jamie Redknapp, though, indicated he’d be surprised if the club sold him on account of today’s incident.

With that in mind, how do you think the club should deal with the controversial Uruguayan striker?


Poll Results:

Leave it to the FA to punish him (567)
Other (563)
Sack him immediately (407)
Let him off with a fine (349)
Sell him (180)

    It’s a simple mistake folks. Ivanovic is Spanish for Ham Sandwich. Suarez saw it on the back of his jersey and mistakenly thought he was a 6ft3inch sandwich. Anyone could make that mistake.

    The Club should get him professional help and not select him until he acknowledges that he has a problem with his temperment . I would write off this season for him amd hope he never reoffends .

    That’s a nice thought Tim, but do you really believe that LFC should continue to pay this mug £100k plus per week to sit on the naughty step and think about things for the rest of the season? They have two choices sack the hateful little shit or dust off the Suarez tshirts from the Evra affair and back him to the hilt.

    Have you seen Suarez’s teeth?? It’s clearly impossible for him to avoid defenders making contact with them every now and again!

    They (lfc)should suspend him for two or three matches without pay and await the fa investigation. The board and owner should deal with it. Lets be honest they left Daglish take all the tough questions during the Evra incident and didnt seem to help or back him.

    Yup.
    It was bad, but just as bad and worse goes on in rugby.
    Still feel the club should and will hit him hard.
    Feel sorry for Rodgers.

    You want him gone you mean. There is no hope of him being sold now. He wasnt going either way he only said it before yesterday game but his actions yesterday would have driven down his fee so a sale now is even more unlikely. You are constantly talking about Liverpool, more than most fans and you seem fascinated by suarez. There will be only one big transfer out of a club wearing red this summer. Your fat forward will be gone

    The best way for Liverpool to deal with him in the future would be to give him a good feed before matches.If this fails to work the only alternative is a trip to the dentist to have all teeth removed.

    Get off your high horse and out of your glass house. Did you call for cantona to be sold. No you didnt, the hypocrisy of united fans on here. What cantona done was no better or worse just different. He deserves a lengthy ban no doubt about it and as a Liverpool fan Im disgusted with what he done. The only reason united fans want him sacked is because of Evra and he he is our best player, sorry the best player in the league. So climb down. Hypocrites

    Did Chelsea sell Terry? Did Man Utd sell Cantona or Keane?…. No they didn’t, not before they’d won the club a truck load of trophies at least!

    I expect Liverpool to stand by Suarez for another two years at least.

    He’s a pyschopath, but he’s also been statistically the best all round player in the league this season.

    Liverpool haven’t endured this moron for two years already, to then just to throw him away as soon as he becomes a world class performer on the pitch, that would be stupidity, he’s worth too much to the club in terms of potential champions league revenue.

    Everyone saying he’ll be sold is talking nonsense, wake up! Modern day football is purely about business and making a fat profit, the owners of Liverpool couldn’t care less about his biting habit as long as he gets them 4th place and a truck load of cash next season!

    I think they should come out and publicly back (in some subtle way) him even if they want to sell him because if they don’t then clubs will bid below his value as they will know Liverpool are trying to offload him (Chelsea fan)

    Honestly, from a PR point of view pre-empt the FA and ban him for the remainder of the season. Can’t sack an asset worth that much and he’s far too important to them to sell willingly.

    He had been fined a unspecified amount, the maximum fine pool can impose Is 2 weeks, he has asked that the money goes to the hillsborough disaster fund, to me that stinks as a publicity stunt, he should be fined by the club, he should donate the same amount to the fund from his own pocket and them the fa should step in and ban him for minimum 10 games

    What they should do is sack him. What they will do is probably fine him, maybe suspend him a game or two…
