Would you rather have bad guys in the team if it means we win more?

If cahill was on the pitch today he would have got saurez back for taking mirallas out. Heitinga may have done as well. I certainly wouldn't have minded if they did.
 
If wed had 10 extra points last season, wed have finished higher than the Champions League winners. Id take Jimmy feckin Saville if it meant finishing fourth.
 
I like the spirit we have at the club. Even players that other clubs seem to hate, like Cahill or Fellaini, seem to me more in the old fashioned style of player that plays a mans game with a bit of rough and tumble. They're not dirty snides like Suarez.

We play in the Moyes style, and I for one like it that way.
 
its not our style and no way would we get away with it, take olive dacourt for example. LFC have exceled in the dark arts, theyve led the way to modern day cheating/conning. if an everton player had stamped on an LFC player like rat-boy did there wouldve been a melee of pushing and fighting forcing the ref into a sending off. where were the everton protests about those `tackles`? where was neville?
 
love this false morality as a trade off for failure.

We'd have Ghengis khan and Adolf himself if it meant reversing Moyes derby stats, it's wood for the trees blindness this perpetual excuse seeking.

I don't often quote SKY journos but as one of them said "if Moyes don't win this one when is he going to win?".

LFC are at their lowest ebb since the 2nd division days perpetually changing managers, owners and players, bringing in youth players and an unheard of keeper and star man, Gerrard, a spent force.

Compare that to the oft trumpeted stability of the Moyes decade where at long last he's stumbled across some creativity with players clearly capable of beating liverpool but doesn't!

Perennial losers with this holier than thou attitude.

Our players dont hassle the ref which is right in a way, that we dont hassle for freekicks and trying to get players sent off, but suarez should have been the exception.

I have no problem with 'nasty' players snapping into challenges or making it tough for he opposition . I've said for years Gerard has for years strolled around the pitch winning derbies almost singe handed and handing out tackles like the one on gary Naismith but when did we even seen him get hit in a 50/50 ? I also remember psycho pat and more Duncan being viewed as heroes for their physical approach whilst that 80's side certainly wasn't backward at coming forward and I remember a kick off at QPR where everyone but Southall was involved or a few chasing marwood at goodison looking to even the score.

For all that would I want a player like Suarez ? When I was growing up or boxing to a horrifically poor standard I was told by my dad and trainers 'don't let them see your hurt even if you are' so I have a real difficulty embracing a player screaming in faux pain. I don't even mind players being clever to draw the foul too much but feigning injury and pain to get players sent off just doesn't sit well with . This is a bloke who racially abused another and then simply just never apologised dragging his own club further into the gutter with his handshake refusal and that's not to mention he bit another player on the pitch. Suarez didn't punch him, barge him , push him or even push his head towards him he but him now if he'd been fighting for his life that might just have been acceptable but he wasn't . I think if he played for everton a number would support him but theyd do it in the way a lot of Chelsea fans do it with terry , namely "we know he's a scumbag but he's our scumbag and [Poor language removed] the rest of the world" rather than try and explain the Uruguayan dialect or CSI some handshake photos .

Suarez is a perfect fit for his club a talented player without it appears any redeeming personality , he's almost a caricature of himself . I do believe if he played for us I'd be happy to see the back of him as and that's at our club whilst Liverpool a much better known club with a higher profile and a considerably more diverse fan base have seen their popularity amongst the neutral plummet since his arrival .

So after a lengthy ramble I'd be happy to see a bit more 'steel' about us but I prefer not to have the likes of that rat dragging my club further and further down.

Yep, it's telling that his instinct was to do something that would be frowned upon at 3am in Concert Square.

We have snides in our side. No doubt that Mirallas and Jelavic will look for penalties this season, while Heitinga is partial to Sniderman antics if he ever gets a game. I have no problem with that, and I'd be happy to have someone in central midfield who goes full-blooded into 40-60 tackles, instead of a captain who pats Suarez on the back for nasty fouls and humiliates himself and the club with pitiful 'simulation'.

You may but I genuinely wouldn't. I was embarrased with Neville diving, difference is that was a one off and Moyes and Neville appologised, I would stop watching football if I had to face that every week, win lose or draw.
