adminSuarez’s lengthy ban got under way at Eastlands on Tuesday night as the South American missed Liverpool’s 3-0 defeat against league leaders Manchester City.
Both Liverpool and Suarez released statements pre-match, which were widely criticised for containing nothing that could be construed as an apology or admission of guilt.
However, Dalglish steadfastly stood by his club’s handling of the affair and yet again added his full backing for Suarez who will now miss Liverpool’s League Cup semi-finals against City and will return against Tottenham on February 6.
“If you get into asking a linguistic expert, which certainly I am not, they will tell you that the part of the country in Uruguay where he comes from, it is perfectly acceptable,” said Dalglish of the word “negro” which Suarez admits using against Evra. – AFP.
