In the last World Cup final, what De Jong did was outrageous, that kung fu kick. It’s hard to see how some things in football/soccer are punished but other things not.

And biting people, in our American Football, Gridiron, that may well happen but when you see it during a soccer game, you think the guy has to be nuts.

Surely Suarez didn’t bite someone again? I’m genuinely gutted. I love watching him play more than any other player but he obviously just can’t control himself.”

Rio Ferdinand, a BBC pundit who is also joining QPR, said: “Tell me Suarez didn’t eat someone! Was the hero a couple of days ago…”
