The Football.....

The thing with Suarez is he's distraught, distraught I tells ya, whenever he's not scoring or setting up goals.

Just watch him chase down a back pass to the keeper! For most forwards it's a formality, a way of showing willing with an outside chance of hurrying a clearance, a simple dispensing of professional responsibility. But not Luis, no way. He chases down expecting to win the ball and score a cheeky one. Just look at the way he throws his arms up(!) or slaps the ground in frustration (!) when the keeper controls and passes the ball to a team mate. Just can't get enough..

Edit: He's also the most honest player in the league.

I agree with a Chelsea fan it is a horrible back stabbing business made worse by the over paid idiots that fail to realize they are not Sunday league players and that if they pick there nose it will be caught on camera and beamed around the world in seconds. Suarez is unbelievable talent and i suppose just like King Eric (one of my heroes) or Zidane in the World Cup Final there is a fine line between genius and idiot.

Just like Cantona with the Kunk Fu Kick back in the day at Selhurst what Suarez did yesterday imo crossed that line to idoit.

There is a fine line but to me what Cantona did was much more acceptable, in my book, than what Suarez did yesterday. And for that matter what Zidane did. Maybe I'm wrong but there didn't seem like much provocation in this instance, otherwise there'd have been less of an apology etc. I might be wrong? In Cantona's case and Zidane's they were verbally (racially) abused and goaded.

And yes, there will be the usual double-standard in dishing out punishment from the FA, they're clueless but we all know that.

FWIW I was hoping that the stance of LFC was, or should be, good enough for the FA but seemingly with the FA's rhetoric this evening, it isn't and that's a shame because I do think LFC and, more importantly, the fans generally take a dim view of this.

There was a Chelsea player on the pitch with Suarez who to my knowledge, has sparked out at least 2 opponents (1 hospitalised) this season, from umpteen cowardly, blind side, forearm smashes. To me, he is deliberate & dangerous thug, Suarez, just a little potty.

I love pantomime villains in football, managers and players, my favourites in L2 are the fatso Steve Evans (Rovrum) and Bilel Moshni (Sarfend) the latter making Suarez look "normal". How boring if our teams were all 11x Gareth Barry's.

World's gone mad, yet another mass hysteria break out over very little.

Luis Suarez hopes to play against Bayern Munich one day, because he'd like to try a shoulder of Lahm

and who can forget Denis Wise's testicle tweaking in a Cup-Winners game?

Come to think of it, Dennis had a thing about testicles..

anyroadup. Bayern 3, Barcelona 0 (so far). It's all gone a bit Pete Tong for TikiTackyTocky!

Barca muppets.....

You have to admit, 2 of those goals might easily have been disallowed - awarding them is more controversial than not, is it not ?

the Robben goal yes, but the Gomes goal would have been a very hard call (if those are the two you mean)

A hard call on the Gomes goal but in light of the footage, more than justifiable.

 

[Spartak]

So when was the last time Barcelona lost 4 - 0

Bayern going forward look threatening ........
Barca going forward trying to walk ball into net !

Denis wasn't the only one :

What a horrid piece of work he was.

BUT, I do hope AFC Wimbledon survive next Saturday, it's either them or the Barnet by the looks of things but AFC need a win.

Rather gutted that Bristol City are relegated as that was always a local, regular fixture when the Rs came to town. Looking at the League One Play-offs though it could well be Yeovil in the Championship next year, the town where I went to Comprehensive School. And what about the Wolves in the 3rd tier eh?

The Sh#theads relegated !

Yeah I don't like them as a club at all Spartak but the Gate was always a good crack as a visiting fan, which won't happen next season now. Are you a gashead by any chance?

And, on another note entirely, will you be TTing with the Clevedon again come the time?
