"Suarez's ban too harsh, could ruin his livelihood"- Fred (Brazil Forward)

We all feel for Suarez, well, others don’t. They deem the punishment meted out to the Uruguay striker for biting an opponent appropriate. Not because it was the verdict was the best FIFA could come up with but because he’s done it twice and has apparently not learnt from previous punishments. However, Brazil striker Fred thinks Suarez’s punishment was taken too far. Here’s what he told the press

“You can’t deny that Suarez committed a mistake, but as a player and a human being who sometimes takes things to heart, I think the ban is too severe. The majority of people I have spoken to about it think it is fair but it is a punishment that could ruin his livelihood.

I think he has to be punished, but I would really like to see him continue playing in this World Cup in Brazil.”
