John Barnes: "I've heard talk about him not playing for Liverpool again, which I think is ridiculous.""So Manchester United, Real Madrid, Barcelona... they can sign him? But we can't have him?".................. John Barnes totally on the money again.This guy needs to be employed by the club a VERY bright guy

This.
Why should Liverpool be forced to get rid of their best player just so he can just sign for another club and pull the same **** with them.
What would this accomplish? Unless FIFA are going to ban Suarez outright from playing football (And Im not saying they should before anyone jumps on this), then Liverpool should not be pressured into releasing him.
As someone said earlier, if they are forced to sack him for "ethical reasons" then what does that say about the club that then signs him are they "unethical" will they receive a backlash from the media?! No....so liverpool should keep him.
 
Liverpool FC managing director Ian Ayre today provided an update on the incident that occurred involving Luis Suarez during Sunday's game with Chelsea. Here is what he had to say in full.


Ian, everyone is still talking about Sunday's incident with Luis Suarez. What is the latest on the situation?

I think the most important thing is that we acted swiftly yesterday. Luis issued his apology and then we spoke with him last night and then again this morning. We've taken action to fine Luis for his actions. Brendan has spoken to him and I've spoken to him, and Brendan will be working with him further on his discipline. You can see when you speak to him how sorry he is about it and he's certainly shown quite a lot of contrition to us - and as part of that, he's also asked we donate the fine to the Hillsborough Family Support Group. I think he felt like he let a lot of people down yesterday. We'll work with Luis - Brendan particularly - on this side of his character in his game. Hopefully that puts the matter to rest from our point of view and we'll wait and see if there's any further action from the football authorities.

Have you had any contact with the owners regarding this situation?

Yes, of course. With any incident like this, any major incident at the club, we're in direct dialogue with the owners, always. I spoke to them last night and they were happy with the way we were handling the matter.



Ayre on Suarez
Will the events of the last 24 hours have any bearing on Luis's future at Liverpool Football Club?

Not at all. It affects his future in the sense that we have to work with him on his discipline - but Luis is a very important player to the club. He's a very popular player with his teammates. As we keep saying, he signed a new four-year contract last summer and we'd all love to see him here throughout that contract. He's a fantastic player, top scorer and everything we'd want in a striker, so there's no change there. This is more about getting him back on the right track and it's largely down to Brendan now to work with him on that side of his character.

I am certain that most of the fans who go to the ground, would disagree with you, those fans that pay thousands of pounds and sacrifice other areas of there life and are there week in week out.

Those fans still back him 10000%

You keep saying that but you don't speak for all of us who go week in week out any more than I do. YOU are entitled to your opinion and I don't doubt it will be echoed by many others who go regularly but you do NOT speak for me. I want him to stay but for me the interests of the club are most important...on and off the pitch.
 
He deserves a ten game ban IMO but actually getting a ban will depend on what the referee's report says. If the referee reports it then the FA rules say he can't be punished <ok>

True unless it is under exceptional circumstances ... i.e. knowing the FA, they will ban Suarez regardless.

I can't really say that this is what I expected. This must be his last chance. He'd better ****ing stay now. If he ****s off, that'll be the ultimate insult.

This part is interesting: We'll work with Luis - Brendan particularly - on this side of his character in his game.

Suarez has been offered anger management. He better accept it. But I think he should pay for it himself.

What is a plastic fan? At the end of the day whether you go to the game every week or sit at home and watch as long as you stick by the club through thick and thin then you are a Liverpool fan, I don't think we will lose fans over this? The term plastic is up there with Out of Towner for me, if we want to remain a big club then all the fans we have are needed not just the ones that go to Anfield.

This post is also for morgan I forgot to multi quote.

Luv, Im from Merseyside and go to every home game, as does my son, I spend thousands every season. I love the club from the depth of my soul,, and I make sacrifices in other parts of my life to ensure I see as much LFC as poss, and I want what is best for club in regards to winning matches / trophies. I also speak to fans who regularly go the game, and I sense that 95% + will say selling Luis is f**kin mental.Everyone things it what stupid what he did, but he must stay.

It pisses fans off like me when you get someone, who doesnt go to games, who doesnt put there money where there mouth is, who doesnt make sacrifice, saying hes making a disgrace of the club and we should sell him immediately.Suarez puts his f**kin heart and soul in2 every match, and some fans cant be arsed to make the effort to get out of there f**kin armchair to watch Liverpool.I came in from the match yesterday, and saw some of the comments on the match thread,they were embarrassing,loads wanting Luis out, and I thought thats not the view of the average bloke who goes to the game.Im also on twitter, and nearly everyone I follow is a match goer, i havnt read ONE tweet saying they want Luis out, they are all saying he must stay.I respect every fans view,but someone who spends a bomb on watching us play holds far more respect than someone who sits in his armchair

They can - Ben thatcher. However the fa will surely **** this up ala mcmanaman and aguero recently

True but wouldn't that just make the FA look ridiculous again?

For the record, I hope they do give him a ban. He deserves it and if he doesn't get banned he will get even more **** from opposition fans!
 
For me Suarez acted like a child on the pitch, but has apologised and is acceptant of his inevitable ban and fines.

Not ideal, but under no circumstances should we sell him because of it. Guy needs to learn, but we need him and he is immense, flawed genius.

Glad that he has apologisd to Branisloaf Isandwichvich.

Cant believe that a similar thing happenned in 2006 and Defoe only got a yellow card...lol

I have been really impressed with the Liverpool support today I have to say. 99% of you have been sensible and logical about this.
Always a couple that ruin it but never mind.
Astroturfnaut especially, who wanted Hazard castrated for kicking a ball out from underneath a ball boy.
Where as Suarez bites someone and he thinks a yellow card is a suitable punishment "because there is precedent".

To reiterate, Liverpool need to help the lad and keep him, because if you can get him straight, you have one hell of a footballer.

To be honest I can't understand how any fan can defend him. For once the incident was every bit as bad as the Suarez haters are making out. If he was not so damn good most of us would be calling for him to be sold but as he is so important to the team the fans will not want to lose him. He deserves at least a 5 game ban in my opinion. For once I am glad Liverpool have nothing else to play for so his suspension might not matter much

Fair enough but someone not going to games etc doesn't mean they love the club less! It doesn't mean you can't see how much he works and that he would be willing to run through a brick wall for the Liverbird.

Personally, I think the calls to sell him are a knee jerk reaction. He is one of the best players in the world, if we sell him who are we going to get in in his place? How are we going to improve? Attract other players? etc etc etc...

If we get a big offer that the club believe is impossible to refuse then we sell him. But we don't sell him because of a extremely made few seconds!


For your commitment to the club... <applause> Wish I could do the same <ok>

He definitely deserves the ban. But it would be a little funny if the FA didn't charge him <laugh>

John Barnes said it best - if we can't have him, why are Man Utd, Barca and Bayern allowed to have him?
