Luis Suarez faced Manchester United again today after serving his eight game ban for abusing Patrice Evra and in the pre-match lineup Suarez refused to shake Evra's hand.

Maybe Liverpool can make some more tshirts now.

Watching the game now.

Re: Wayne Rooney and Jay Spearing. Both with near-shaven heads.

When Mr Ugly knocks on your door, you don't have to invite him in and serve him tea and biscuits.

Haven't seen a post-match scene quite like Liverpool and Man U just now. Patrice Evra riverdanced around the pitch, eventually ending up right in front of Luis Suarez and sparking a little drama between the teams.

Suarez is to be congratulated for making me want United to win a game for the first time since about 1979.

Unsurprisingly Dalglish didn't see it and thinks "you're bang out of order to blame Luis Suarez for anything that happened here today."

Keep it up, Kenny.

Osasuna just beat Barcelona 3-2, having been up 2-0 at half time. That gives Real the chance to go 10 points ahead if they win tomorrow at home against Levante, and that's a pretty big mountain to climb in La Liga.

Real could lift the title without beating Barca.

Mourinho should send the Osasuna keeper a nice gift.

Holy crap.

Which one of you heartless bastards is going for Ivory Coast tonight?

Redemption is at hand.

Apologies from Suarez, Dalglish, the Liverpool managing director and, I assume, the Anfield cat.
