Luis Suarez refuses to shake Patrice Evras hand, proves Dalglish wrong

In their first meeting since Liverpool's Luis Suarez returned from his eight-match ban for racially abusing Manchester United's Patrice Evra, Suarez continued the already tedious matter and proved he's not above lying to his own manager all during the nonsensical pre-match handshakes.

As the Liverpool players shook hands with their counterparts, Suarez tried to skip over Evra and shake David De Gea's hand, but Evra tried to force a gesture of peace by grabbing Suarez's arm. Suarez then yanked his appendage out of Evra's grasp and continued down the line. Rio Ferdinand, however, then refused to shake Suarez's hand in response to his petulance, thus ensuring that we are all still talking about something as pointless as handshakes (see the whole thing here).

Three days before the match, Kenny Dalglish told Liverpool's official website:

"People are already speculating on the pre-match ceremony, but from Luis's point of view we have spoken to him and I know he will shake the hand of Patrice Evra and the other Manchester United players before the game."

Oops.

So, even before Suarez's second match back from his ban, he's already kicked Scott Parker in the stomach and refused to shake hands with the man he was found guilty of racially abusing. What a guy.
