If there was any contact between the players, it was minimal (and not a foul). What causes him to fall over is his own foot kicking the ground, and then a DIVE.

Suarez incident? It was great, admit it, it was. Fans like goals and controversy and this nutcase provides both, who'd want to remove him from view, really?It's sad that with the PFA (rehabilitation) award and RM & Barca both wanting to buy him, that he should throw it all away. Lengthy ban and enforced treatment for me, but not too long a ban, nobody was greatly injured and I'd miss him.
Loved the sanctimonious crap from Shearer, Savage and the other one - top entertainment!

Could have got 175/1 with Betsafe for Suarez biting someone!

I've found the commentators laughable so far. Last night in the England game, Luke Shaw was all over a CRC player, pulling his shirt etc in the box. Commentators said "Fantastic play by Shaw and he's got a goal kick'". If it had been the other end of the pitch, the calls for a penalty would have been deafening

The vid is confirmation of what I said previously, he's clearly fouled in the box, it's the defender's foul that causes Samaras to kick the ground. Why would you think he'd rather kick the ground than the round thing?

When it comes to the Old Firm, I am a sitter on the fence, if that's what you mean
. I don't like either of them! Samaras has a history of having difficulty staying on his feet whenever an opponent comes near him in the penalty area. He goes down easier than a one legged man at an arse kicking contest.

Perhaps because he didn't have enough confidence in his ability to score from there, so decides to cheat and goes to ground in the hope of having a better chance of scoring from the penalty spot.Why would you think he'd rather kick the ground than the round thing?

I see where you're coming from. It feels a bit weird defending the guy to be honest, but I see him as quicker and more skilful than most SPL players so the late/mis-timed challenge is inevitable. How much contact folk actually make with him is debatable, but you'd be hard pressed to find a forward who doesn't go down when they're breathed on.

England are arriving home today to a tickertape parade and a hero's welcome.
They're landing at Glasgow airport.

I sort of agree about the bite - the studio summarisers do get all sanctimonious when this sort of thing happens
What is irritating me, however, is his and his teammates tedious whinging and blaming the press and even Chiellini
Liverpool, the FA, his teammates and the press that gave him football writes player of the year have all given him 2nd and 3rd chances while
he's done nothing but complained of being persecuted and picked on
Even after knockinh England out he couldn't resist an unnecessary dig at the press.
As far as I'm concerned he's very good to watch, but the whole baggage that comes with him means I'd be happy for him to be chucked out of the world cup and longer - I wouldn't miss him at all

According to bits of the BBC website, there is still confusion over whether or not a FIFA ban for Suarez can extend into club football. One commentator even claims his price tag will rise if Barca or Real feel he will be available for more domestic games due to an international ban.,
