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.
Yes, these "little" things is what makes the rivalry better and the games that much more "meaningful and exciting" (no racism of course!). And yes, very stupid comments by Sir Alex when we've won the game to go out and say stuff like that. To be honest though, it's not like he gave Evra any compliments either. Just as Suarez didn't want to shake hands with Evra and when Evra were "celebrating by coincidence" right in front of Suarez to Sir Alex comments; these are all things made in the heat of the moment and yet we're all discussing them days later. I'm sure if you put up all the things I've done in the heat of a moment throughout the years I'd be as big as a dick as they are...
All in all, Sir Alex should just focus on Man Utd play and don't get into others business.

Woot, finally Chelsea get a win.
Lamps still proving AVB wrong....lol.
If I was AVB I would keep starting Super Frank, get back on good terms with him, and move on. Put the phasing out of Frank on hold for a while, we are a much better team with him and he is such an influential voice in the dressing room. AVB needs him right now.

He's playing on a great level and he keeps that level during the whole season.
And this is coming from a ManU fan

If we get crushed by Tottenham today (which I'm expecting), it's pretty much lights out on even getting 4th place. Funny thing, My wife and I drove by a lady in a Volvo yesterday who's tags read TOTTNHM. We weren't in my car with my Arsenal tags, but still...
