    This really is a very interesting group and the Italy/Uruguay game will be a cracker with everything riding on it.
    They only hate him because he is the best.

      Can you believe this. Apparently Spain blamed their lose the other night on the weather, it was too Chile.

        I think its more to do with his biting, being racist, diving etc myself.

        Fantastic player, but also a mammoth sized flog.

                Pretty Sure Rooney will get the blame for England's woes.
                Just like Beckham before him
                Costa Rica I nil up on the Italians . Costa Rica denied a stonewall penalty.

                  Biting racist diving might have a fair bit to do with it .

                    I'll give you the biting it was an incredible snap almost funny if it wasn't the second time, but he apologized profusely and copped a massive ban so he's paid his dues.

                    Racist? Till this day he still pleads his innocence, surely if he meant any harm he wouldnt talk about it the way he does. Where he comes from they have different meanings for the same words and he didn't shake Evra's hand because he knew it wasn't said the way it was portrayed in the media. There was no proof and the bloke was hung out to dry. But he copped another huge ban on the chin. FWIW Evra voted him MVP last season.

                    Diving? Coming from a Chelsea fan, thanks for the giggle mate. Most players dive when they can, thats the sport unfortunately. He is that good he usually has the defender beat and puts himself in a position to draw the foul. Of course like most strikers he has a couple of howlers in his file, but thats life.

                    He has paid his dues and then some for his mistakes.

                        Les Bleus look fantastic. 5-0 up late in the 2nd half.

                        Poor old England. Just can't take a trick when it comes to World Cups. Lol.

                        Didn't see the Costa Rica V Italy match - what happened? Did Italy play crap or just couldn't get the ball in the net.

                          Try and justify it all you want mate, but he's not hated because he's a fantastic footballer(and he's not the best).

                          Be like me saying Terry gets booed and abused because he's such a great defender, when we all know why he's copping it and fair enough.

                            bye bye England.

                            Fantastic effort from the Costa Ricans.

                              I'm not trying to justify it, I'm saying the English are Morons they want him deported because he kicked them out of the Cup. It wasn't their weak defense or overpaid bald strikers. No it was the underdone bloke who hurt our Precious Evras feelings that made us look silly.

                              Terry did a Wayne Carey not the same. Suarez got 18 weeks all up and the idiots still hate him. They want him to go home because their isn't a defender in the PL that can go with him. He gave the League 5 games headstart and still belted them for the boot.

                              He is underdone from recent surgery steps in and gets a brace on the biggest stage. If Uruguay goes through to the final 8 he will give the boot a shake in the Cup. His stats from last season is on par if not better than any striker on the planet. So feel free to put up someone who is better.

                              They boo him but make no mistake they all want him.

                                Messi, Ronaldo and Ibra are all comfortable in front of him and he is on the next rung down from those guys with half a dozen other players IMO. Looking forward to see how he goes in the CL and dispelling the theory he's a bit of a flat track bully.

                                But I'm probably wasting my time arguing with a Pool supporter about anything Pool, love your passion.

                                And seriously, Suarez cops it from the media cause he's a flog (he was bating them again after the England game apparently) not because hes a good player.
