The inner animal has taken over again it seems.
Luis Suarez scored the opener on Saturday night at the Mestalla as his side drew 1-1 with Valencia, but the shine from his recent impressive performances have been overshadowed by accusations of stamping on a defender in the game.
The Uruguayan and defender Aymen Abdennour were involved in tussles all night – but two incidents might warrant further investigation.
Firstly it appeared as if Suarez may have deliberately trampled on the Tunisian’s left foot in a tangle on the edge of the box
Having seen another replay of this, it looks like Suarez trod on Abdennour's foot

That would be bad enough, if a camera angle also hadn’t suggested that Suarez may have left his studs down on the arm of the centre half too as they fell to the ground, which left a gash in the Valencia man’s arm.

We’ll see if any complaint is made by new Valencia manager Gary Neville in the coming hours.
