Carra on Liverpool pal Suarez: Just calm down will ya!

Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has called for calm heads when it comes to dealing with Luis Suarez. Carra wrote in the Daily Mail: "It was said in the aftermath of Sunday's game against Chelsea, firstly by Graeme Souness as he began his analysis on Sky, that nobody is bigger than the club and that Liverpool should make Luis pay the heaviest penalty by getting rid of him.

"Now I am not for one moment trying to sugar-coat the incident in which Luis bit Branislav Ivanovic. It was wrong on all levels. You simply don't expect to see a grown man bite another grown man - that is behaviour you would associate with nursery school.

"But the way things are now being pitched is that Liverpool have got to do something about the rotten apple in their midst.

"It is as if Luis is the only player to have represented Liverpool who has ever been embroiled in controversy.

"That simply isn't the case."

 Is Carra right? Has the backlash been too much? Give us your shout below...
