Carragher: Reds right to back Suarez

Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher believes the club are right to stick by Luis Suarez, saying he would rather be bitten than have his leg broken.

Suarez was today set to find out the length of the ban he will receive for biting Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic at the weekend, after he pleaded guilty to a violent conduct charge but denied a claim from the Football Association that a standard three-match suspension is “clearly insufficient”.
