Just proves that Suarez is bad news. All it would have taken is a simple handshake and everything could have just been forgotten. I don't think he'll be leaving Anfield any time soon though. As much as he is a cock, just like Craig Bellamy, they're both fantastic footballers.
I think we definitely deserved it today. Just hope Villa can do us a favour tomorrow afternoon.
Enjoy your evening, Patrice!
The backdrop was always going to lead to a tricky event or two in the game but I'm happy with the game itself. We played well and were unlucky to concede a goal, and could have scored more.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Naaawww. Suarez is a cock for sure, but I feel it's unfair to lump Craig in with him. Yeah he gives it a bit of mouth on the pitch but have a read http://www.dailymail.co.uk/sport/foo...ll-school.html he's not a bad guy deep down imho. (Yes I know, Daily Mail!)Originally Posted by Bubbaforever
^ Aside from the odd harmless spat, Bellamy has been nothing but a great example to any young footballer.
Can't believe what happened in that game. Fergie said in the post match interview that Evra had said to him before the game that he would shake Suarez hand, kinda like a truce. To say that Suarez was the one in the wrong and still neglects to shake Evra's hand labels him as an absolute disgrace to football. He could have easily started a riot between the fans.
I am not being biased here when I say there was little wrong with Evra celebrating in the end. It was a massive game they won and he was celebrating with the home fans, there is nothing bad about that. It wasn't as if he ran down to the Liverpool end and started dancing.
As for Kenny Daglish? A very blinded man. He says he never seen the non-handshake. He also backs Suarez still.Also, has he ever directly answer a question given to him? A firm no.
I agree 100% with everything you said there Donal. Nothing wrong with what Evra did even if I did not enjoy seeing it!
I thought Kenny was being sarcastic about not seeing the handshake debacle though. I think he just hates answering questions about drama and prefers to talk about the actual football. I could be wrong though.
Yeah your probably right. I'm sure he is sick to the teeth of hearing about Suarez and all the drama that has gone on with it. One thing is for certain though, Suarez has done no favours for his manager throughout all of this.
I agree, Psy, that Bellamy is not in the same league as Suarez... but he's still a cock. My best friend met him in Glasgow when he was on loan at Celtic and 'cock' is the perfect description for him.
I don't dispute some of the work he's done around the world. I think that is absolutely fantastic. The amount of money that footballers make there should be a lot more of his generosity. That still doesn't mean he's particularly pleasant face-to-face.
"Odd harmless Spat" eh, Rocket Edge? I'm sorry, but I don't think that attacking girls in nightclubs, throwing chairs at assistant managers and attacking a team mate with a golf club can be described as a harmless spat.
I agree with you about King Kenny though... looks like he's got blinders on to the world.
To be fair, it was John Arne Riise he battered with a golfclub. How many of us can honestly say we'd never do the same after seeing him belt another 40 yard shot into Row Z?
Oh my God how many chances should we have buried to level it in those last two minutes.
Norwich deserved the win though, our defence was leakier than me that time I had chlamydia. I can't understand how they do it. Looking at their players, they just seem so average, yet do everything right. They even beat us with posession in the first half.
there was a picture here
i think the handshake at the start between players should have been cancelled. none of this would have happened. in saying that suarez really is a disgusting excuse for a human. Liverpool FC have been greatly damaged by the circus surrounding him.
PS: Bellamy's annoying, but that's it. Great attitude on the grass (as long as its not a golf course).
Bellamy is at least honest about what he does. Suarez is a bit... slimier, you know what I mean?
I disagree with cancelling handshakes. If you are going to play against another player for millions per year, you should be able to shake their hand at the start of the match in an agreement to playing against each other fairly (as that is what the pre-match handshakes are about). If you can't respect each other on that basic a level, then you shouldn't be playing against each other. Whoever declines the handshake should just not play.
Bow before the mighty Javoo!
Just plain stupid. That best describes what Suarez did. I love though how now there is a conspiracy theory being circulated that Evra actually faked-out Suarez by pulling his hand away at the last moment to MAKE Suarez miss him. Even if that's the case, it was a disgrace.
I really think that if they get a good offer for him in the summer, say from Real Madrid, they should take it. He has had a history of problems on the field and this latest episode only highlights it. Sell him, however, for a legit football reason as well: He doesn't score enough. He is wonderfully tricky on the ball and has loads of talent but he has missed so many chances this season. Liverpool all season have been really poor in the final third and he has been chief among the culprits.
Also, please stop playing Downing for a while. With each game he shows less and less ability. It is clear he has hit some sort of wall of confidence and literally did nothing all game save for give the ball away time and time again.
Finally, can someone please remind "Sir" Alex that unless he wants to go through all the sordid history HIS players have been through, from Keane to Rooney to Giggs, he should probably refrain from passing judgment on anyone else's.
At this point, I think Liverpool should really focus in and try to win the double with the FA and Carling Cup. Top 4 really looks a pipe dream unless they get things together. Though, to be honest, Chelsea have looked awful, Arsenal are up and down and I don't really believe in Newcastle, so maybe we still have an outside chance, but I'm more looking for some Cup wins over Champions league as the most realistic goals at this point. Also, you know, actual goals, might be a good thing to get a few more of too.
Take care all.
Yeah Downing has been an extreme disappointment. For someone with all that Premiership and England experience and who is meant to be in the prime of his career he has not performed anywhere near to the standards that he should be.
As for Fergie, he knows what he's doing. He likely does not give the slightest of smurfs about what happened out there. He's a master of the media and he's using gamesmanship to unsettle the team he always acknowledges as his club's biggest rival. I salute the man because it has worked. But when you look at it objectively, failing to shake a man's hand is hardly on a level with, say, running up to someone in the crowd and kicking them in the head, and you didn't see him getting rid of Cantona.

I met him before too in Cardiff, and even accidently spilled water on him, and he was alright with me, just joking around...that said he was with his family.
As for the whole Suarez thing, it's all well and good saying "there should have been no handshake" but the fact is that there was, and he should have took it. If he had this would all be over now. Also Kenny's awful handling of it at the end didn't help much either.
But with regards to the game, I enjoyed it. I thought Utd played well with even Ferdinand putting in a great performance (that knock on the face obviously helped), a well won game.
