Regarding the incident with Suarez and Evra;
Luis Suárez 'categorically denies' using racial abuse, Liverpool insist | Football | The Observer
Suarez denies the claims.

my gut feeling tells me Evra's claims are true but time will tell i guess

 

[W4NKER]

Even if that wasn't the case, 1.86 isn't short, either.

I'm 1.96 so unfortunately I look down on most people, esp divers because, by definition, they're already on the ground (6)

Good job getting along with Nani then.

Be easier than Suarez.

Indeed. Nani. Young. Downing. Adam. Suarez.

Listen, I hate all divers. Don't care who they play for. The sooner 3-game bans are handed out per dive the better. Luckily I'm old enough to remember when most players tried to stay on their feet and were, in fact, punished for trying to cheat.

Be easier than Suarez.

Both are divers, as are plenty of players. Today, Sturridge attempted a poor attempt at a dive too. As despicable an attitude as that is, one grows to accept it.

Taken from Suarez's facebook and twitter -
"I'm upset by the acusations of racism. I can only say that I have always respected and respect everybody. We are all the same. I go to the field with the maximum illusion of a little child who enjoys what he does, not to create conflicts."

I very much doubt Suarez said anything racist related too Evra, but then again I'm a Liverpool fan so some say I'm bound to say that.

However, if I remember hasn't Evra accused 2/3 people of this before and been wrong?

Also, Suarez' English isn't that good, he can hardly string a sentence together for an interview, so unless he's learned a racially abusive word/words Evra will need to have understood Uruguayan to know what Suarez said.

Thats just my opinion/view on it.

He accused a chelsea groundsman but nothing was found on video, that doesn't mean it didn't happen.
Other people claim steve finnan was rascist to him but he didn't claim it, finnan was found not guilty.

Evra is fluent in Italian which isn't too dissimilar to Spanish, and even speaks some Spanish. Not as if certain racist words are exclusive to English, either.

Manchester United face fight to hold onto Paul Pogba - News - MirrorFootball.co.uk

Strange that we haven't renewed his contract yet considering how highly rate he is.

 

[hughesman]

I have to say that Evra is a world class LB but is becoming a bit to lazy and arrogant, andd I truly think Fergie should sign a new LB in the snext summer transfer window, but still if the allegations are true then shame on suarez I hate racism in the game and it should be a matter for the police as well as the FA

Uruguayan does not exist. Official language in Uruguay is Spanish bud

one person, and it wasnt proved either way, there's a difference. You cant punish someone on word vs word. he didnt accuse Finnan.

Wouldn't put it past Suarez to be honest, fantastic footballer but the guy comes across as a bit of a ****.

I'm hoping he didnt sink that low, because that would be truly pathetic
