9 - Luis Suárez - v1

[Pepe Silvia]

Or we can go the GOAT Brazil way. Instead of Ronnie, Ronaldo, Roberto Carlos it'll be Messi, Suarez, Neymar/Rakitic

Xavi will still take them

 

[Androutsos]

Do you think if the ruling allows, they will do a official player presentation or do it at the Gamper?

He'll probably have a presentation anyway, independent from the squad presentation at the Gamper.

5 days have now passed since the meeting with CAS. I think we know more on friday

It is frustrating to be forced to wait for so long for a relatively simple decision like this. But after all the most important thing is a well reduced ban decision if not a cancellation.

 

[ViscaBarca914]

I'm way too eager to hear this damn decision.
I really hope it's made by the end of Friday. It's been driving me nuts. Are we going to start the season only missing Neymar? Or are we going to be missing two of our 3 forwards who will most likely start?
I can't even tell you guys how dissapointed I will be if the ban is upheld until the end of october

 

[FC B]

I'm trying not to think about it much and it usually works and the time flies faster like this.

I guess Neymar will start the season because he is already training with the ball.

 

[Egert]

The more I think about it, it will be amazing to see him training with us for the first time. But I should follow FC B tactic and not think about it very much

 

[DonAK]

The big day is tomorrow guys. #DareToDonAK

Suarez, FC Barcelona & Uruguayan FA v/ FIFA - Decision on 14 August 2014

Lausanne, 13 August 2014 - The Court of Arbitration for Sport (CAS) will announce its decision in the matter Luis Suarez, FC Barcelona & the Uruguayan FA on Thursday 14 August 2014 at around 3pm. This case was heard on 8 August 2014 at the CAS offices in Lausanne.

At the request of the Appellants and with the agreement of FIFA, the CAS has conducted an expedited arbitration procedure. As a consequence, the CAS Panel has accepted to render its decision within a short period of time but with grounds to follow later.

I hope ban will be reduced totally.

 

[Antimadridista1]

We shouldn't be too optimistic.

DonAK was right....

CAS to announce decision on Luis Suarez appeak at 2pm Tomorrow. (Sky Sports)

 

[André]

If the ban is reduced with 2 months, can he play against Elche?

 

[Tomchin]

If the ban is reduced with 2 months, can he play against Elche?

Don't think so, think the ban will only be over 26/08 in that case, but game against Elche is 24/08. On top of that, first he'd need to train a couple of days (or more) with his teammates to become match-fit.

 

[Androutsos]

We should close the thread until it's announce so we don't jinx it...
