Haha I love how all tough he is when he dodges' Evra but how surprised he is when Ferdinand isn't shaking his.... Sometimes I wonder if they're all 5 years old.

Suarez was never going to shake Evra's hand. Ferdinand didnt shake Suarez's hand because he saw Suarez didnt shake Evra's. Suarez is a child.

Funny bit was at the end of the game when Evra celebrating, deliberatly' in front of Suarez as he was leaving...childish, but damn funny lol

Patrice Evra right celebrates as Liverpool's Luis Suarez walks - YouTube

yeah nothing to say about chelsea.. again..
so Steve, how have you been doing this for the last 6 years mate?

about suarez/evra: anyone here doubt that suarez actually racially abused evra? it boggles the mind to think that he would do that, and if he did, what were the words exactly?

It's not easy - no room for fair weather fans!

The way I think of it: But for a few unlucky red cards here and there and unlikely comebacks/meltdowns, we've got 2 Champions League wins, a few FA and Carling cups and 2 league titles in the last 6 years

I dont doubt he said something to him. In the video of the incident they even show Suarez pinching Evra's skin. So I bet he said something about his race while pinching his skin.

Suarez is a douche for not shaking hands. He could have put an end to the whole story by just being an adult, instead he acts like some spoiled brat, bringing even more attention to something that has no place in the game.....or life.



Now, on to Chelsea.

I am honeslty starting to think think that AVB is way out of his league at Chelsea. I just dont think he has the experience and know how to manage a club of Chelsea's size. His tactical decisions and substitutions leave a lot to be desired.

The problem is, I dont know who you would replace him with at this point of the season?

I personally think that what Suarez did was wrong by not shaking his hand. But does anyone really think that Evra is an innocent victim in all of this? And the most pathetic thing of all is the Fergie interview after the game calling Suarez a "Disgrace" and that he should never play for liverpool again, What a pathetic way to have a go at your rival. Over the years i've seen Rooney cussing and swearing at referees and players (and i'm talking about face-to-face swearing live on camera), throwing dangerous tackles from time to time and being charged for gross misconduct (including the last England Euro 2012 qualifier) many times. Some would call Roy keane a legend and I wouldn't argue about his footballing ability, but what sort of example did he set for the younger generation after all those years? And let's not forget Eric Cantona and His Kong Fu tackle. What about Ryan Giggs, probably united's most established player over the years, What did fergie have to say when he was caught sleeping with his brother's wife? And you bet your a$s that Fergie will defend all those players any day.

There is no one in their right mind who can say that Evra is innocent. Both of them acted like 5 year olds.

Yes I'm a United fan but that doesn't mean I think they're always right or always behave correctly. Fergie has always been controversial in his comments about pretty much everything, which certainly doesn't make it ok, so we all should always look at his comments with a critical angle. Regarding his comments about Giggs cheating, this is all I could find on google (although I must admit I didn't search that much). Anyhow, we all know it's the managers job to protect their players, just like Kenny did right after the last game.

BUT in this case, a simple handshake by Suarez could've let this story die down. He didn't and therefor he has become the villain in this sandbox-fight.

Im with you there mate. I think that both players were childish. And that a simple handshake wouldve prevented this whole issue. But its football, these sort of incidents in my opinion will always produce that spark that make this game so interesting (racial abuse not included). The guy just came out of an 8 match ban, SO WHAT if he didn't shake his hand? Who knows what actually was said between the two? You won the game, moved top of the table, made suarez look like a complete fool, why come out and have a go at how liverpool should manage their player and give the media more stories to stab suarez? It is him who came out and blasted the media's plot when all the headlines were about how bad De Gea performances were and how he was unfit to succeed van der saar.
