As a diehard LFC fan, I don't know how to proceed from here on out.

Pretty much how I feel. One the one hand I want to support the guys who work so hard for our team. But I'm having trouble with the other side of things. How do I justify my support in light of what he's done? In a few years when my kid is paying more attention to soccer on TV and something like this happens, how do I justify Suarez? I find myself thinking a lot more in terms of how I'll talk to my kid about these type of things. Weird how things change so much with kids.

Its not like Ivanovic did something (at least from what I've seen or heard) to justify any kind of Suarez reaction.

I do agree that selling him is not the best idea. But he has to be internally fined, benched (shouldn't be a problem since the FA may provide several game suspension too), given resources for coping, and told straight forward, further actions like this will:

1. Mean immediate suspense from team forever
2. Suspension of weekly wages until such time as sold
3. Sold at next transfer window to whomever the club can get - if he plays in freakin' El Salvador he has no option to block it.

One thing for sure, I was going to get a Suarez jersey next year, but I'll probably pick someone else.
