biting
I understand why biting is seen so badly.
goals minimum open people second ton
As a minimum we have to get to the second round. After that, a ton of other goals will open up. This is what we want the people to understand.
defeat people
People ask, 'How can you let a defeat hurt you so much?' But it comes back to the effort you have put into your career as a youngster.
ban biting fact gets questioned taken
After my 10-match ban in 2013 for biting Branislav Ivanovic, I had questioned the double standards and how the fact that no one actually gets hurt is never taken into consideration.
count course english leg lowest takes
Sometimes English football takes pride in having the lowest yellow-card count in Europe, but of course it will have if you can take someone's leg off and still not be booked.
stain word
Put 'Luis Suarez' into an Internet search engine, and up comes the word 'racist.' It's a stain that is there for ever. And it is one that I feel I do not deserve.
against best korea
I've scored many goals that I've liked, but I think the best memory I have is the one against Korea in the 2010 World Cup.
hard
It was very hard for me as a kid to get through as a footballer in Uruguay.
coaches
Coaches have told me I can help the team much more if I don't talk, if I don't moan.
bad good liverpool played season
My first season at Liverpool had good moments but also bad ones. We played three tournaments and we played two finals, and that was good.
course goes press realise wherever
Of course I don't like the fact that my wife goes to the supermarket and there are photographers. But I realise that the press attention is the same wherever you go.
improve last
Now, we're going to try and improve on the last World Cup.
score
Obviously, being a forward, I would like to score more goals. But while the team does well, there is no problem.
desire explain hunger million people success three
There are only three million people in Uruguay, but there is such hunger for glory: you'll do anything to make it; you have that extra desire to run, to suffer. I can't explain our success, but I think that's a reason.
