Luis Suárez on ‘right path’ after seeing therapist to cure biting problem

So says the Guardian headline.

 “I think all the bad things I have been through are in the past,”

I'm no expert but isn't part of "the cure" about taking responsibility? There doesn't seem to be any of that. He's been through bad things. Not caused them?

 
“Everyone has different ways of defending themselves. In my case, the pressure and tension came out in that way. There are other players who react by breaking someone’s leg, or smashing someone’s nose across their face. What happened with Chiellini is seen as worse. I understand why biting is seen so badly.”

Huh? Footballers react to pressure with outright violence?  And he's playing it down. It's just seen as worse, apparently, nothing exceptional about it.

So let's await the next incident because it surely seems there will be one.

 

 

 

What is a 'jobsworth'

It's a common description of someone usually having to apply some rule.

I've decided that a useful definition is what someone who doesn't want to lose their own job calls someone else who also doesn't want to lose their job.

In short, a hypocrite.
