Two pieces of good news for Liverpool fans:
1. They get to keep him.
2.

That's the cover of next year's media guide sorted!
I wonder why he's holding his teeth if they didn't just make an impact with something...or will he try to pretend that he was the victim in an impact which photos show was caused by him moving his head into Chellini's back?
For whatever reason, I find self-righteous denials more annoying than biting another human being, so I'm incensed by these comments, reported in the Guardain:
"Suárez denied he had bitten Chiellini. “These situations happen on the field,” he said. “I had contact with his shoulder, chest against shoulder and I got a knock to the eye – nothing more.”
*Funny you were holding your teeth, then.*
Uruguay jumped to Suárez’s defence, with the non-playing captain Diego Lugano sensing conspiracy and accusing Chiellini of being a cry baby. He also suggested that the apparent bite mark on the Italian’s shoulder was an existing scar.
“Did you see it [the bite] today or did you see what happened in other years?” Lugano said. “You couldn’t have seen it today because nothing happened. The worst of everything is the attitude of Chiellini. It doesn’t correspond with Italian football, crying and appealing against a rival. As a man he disappointed me totally. I had him as a reference point. You have to be stupid to think that mark on Chiellini is from today.”
*So are you denying he bit him, or are you just muddying the waters?*
Ãscar Tabárez, the Uruguay manager, lost his patience at the questions about Suárez and he lashed out at “certain media” for what he suggested was the targeting of the player.
“This is a football World Cup, it’s not about morality, cheap morality,” Tabárez said. “As we say in Uruguay, there are people who are hiding behind a tree waiting for someone to make a mistake. Suárez, despite any mistakes he might have made, is the preferred target of certain media,
*And which media is that, pray tell?*
of certain press, who give him much more coverage for an alleged error he might have made rather than the things for which he is really in football.”
*Again, are you denying he bit Chiellini, or just muddying the waters? Of course, it is reasonable to say that a player biting another player for the third time is no big deal, and is being blown out of proportion.*
