FA charge Luis suarez
The Football Association has charged Liverpool forward Luis
Suarez with violent conduct for his bite on Chelsea's Branislav
Ivanovic .
The Uruguayan sank his teeth into the defender's
arm in the second half of the two sides' 2-2 draw at
Anfield, later going on to seal the injury-time
equaliser.
The FA confirmed in a statement on its official
website that "the incident was not seen by the
match officials and has therefore been
retrospectively reviewed.
"It is alleged that the conduct of Suarez constitutes
violent conduct and it is the FA's contention that the
standard punishment of three matches that would
otherwise apply is clearly insufficient in these
circumstances."
The Liverpool star has until 18.00BST on Tuesday to
appeal, with an independent panel to be brought
together on Wednesday to hear the charge.
Suarez has been fined by his club, who have
indicated that they would accept any judgement forthcoming
from the FA.

SUAREZ JIBE
Be careful footballers bwhen playing against liverpool because you might be bitten by someone............
ARSENAL TO SIGN BUNDESLIGA TALENT..
according to the Sunday Express.
The 19-year-old midfielder is widely regarded as one of the brightest young talents in the Bundesliga at the moment, and has attracted admiring glances from a number of top European clubs, including Real Madrid.
Gunners boss Arsene Wenger has been credited with an interest in bringing the Germany international to the Emirates Stadium, as he prepares to splash more than £70million on strengthening his Arsenal squad ahead of the 2013/14 campaign.
Draxler has impressed for Schalke this season, with a number of scintillating performances coming in the Champions League.
His fine form has also caught the eye of Old Trafford chief Sir Alex Ferguson, who is preparing a Manchester United bid to rival that of Arsenal and Real Madrid, according to talkSPORT.
The talented teenager has made no secret of his desire to one day move to Spain, having recently told Marca that it would be a dream to play at the Santiago Bernabeu.
That could put Real Madrid in the driving seat to secure Draxler's signature, however that won't stop both Premier League suitors from stepping up their interest when the transfer window reopens on July 1.
