Agreed. Was a slow first half but the second half was excellent. Torres was absolutely not interested in playing against Liverpool. Some great football from Liverpool and Sturridge was playing like a man possessed. As was Suarez as usual. Until the silly hand ball and the bite let him badly down. Of course it's indefensible.
The only thing that surprised me about the Suarez bite was that it took as long as it did for it to happen. Obviously it's common knowledge that Suarez is hot tempered and part of the plan if you're his opponent is to try to use that to your team's advantage. I've got no problem with this whatsoever and I accept that this is part of the game. Ivanovic is a sneaky cunt (always has been) and has been playing in the "bait Suarez" (but not literally I thought?) role for the last few Liverpool/Chelsea games and he finally got the better of him. I thought Suarez was growing up and becoming more experienced and better able to deal with that as he won't be unfamiliar with that sort of attention. As Suarez and others have quite rightly said it's inexcusable and I'm glad he was quick to apologise and Ivanovic showed class in accepting. I hope Luis is as quick to accept the lengthy ban he will inevitably get. Although this talk of 6 months or longer is nonsense. Aye it's a horrible thing to do but some of the comments are OTT. I expect this to be his last game for Liverpool this season. He'll probably miss the start of next too. The silver lining here is that this may put other clubs off coming in for him. Probably not though.
