After watching the match between Manchester United and Liverpool over the weekend, I can say with all certainty that the hype of the second coming of King Kenny is well and truly over.
 
When Kenny Dalglish first took the job as Liverpool manager, most thought he was the right man for the job. Unfortunately, he has shown that he has neither the tact, nor the nuance for a manager at the highest level.
 
The way Dalglish and Liverpool FC handled the whole situation was totally unbecoming of a top football manager and club. He should have shown maturity and state that he would only want to talk about the football instead of trying to hedge around the question.
 
Obviously the way they have dealt with everything has led to this huge mess.
 
Although they did apologise in the immediate aftermath of the whole situation, that apology should have been sent out months ago when the incident first took place.
 
It really makes a mockery and a joke of things. The situation was dealt with in an immature manner, the damage has been done. I cannot stress how much the club has let themselves down. Maybe in the future the club might possibly go back to winning titles, but no one will forget about this incident.
 
I firmly believe that Dalglish’s managing style is too outdated to keep up with the pace of the modern game of football.
 
The current reign of Kenny Dalglish has definitely thrown up more questions than answers both on and off the pitch. It is clear for all to see that his man management skills are not in tune with modern sensibilities and the football the club has been getting from bad to worse both on and off the pitch.
 
If Suarez had any sense as well, he would be packing his bags and saying adios to Liverpool and the Barclays Premier League. Should Suarez want to play at the highest level, Liverpool is not the club to be if he wants to further his career.
 
Away from the pitch, I am sure he would not want to stay in a League that practices selected persecution. Only in this League will you see Luis Suarez being banned eight games with immediate effect and Chelsea’s John Terry getting his hearing postponed. It’s ridiculous!
 
As a footballer, Suarez might also find the Premier League too easy for him. Now everyone might say that he just does not score enough goals, but when he first arrived in England, he really excited the whole country. He lit up the league with his skills and the ease in which he got past defenders.
 
In my time as a player, I knew I was going to get abused by the opposing fans. So did my manager and my teammates. So in my opinion, if you cannot take the ill-treatment then you should not be a footballer.
 
Opposing fans would always give you hell and the best way I found to tackle this was to play so well that the opposing fans hated me even more. It was always about strength of character and I believe that is how players should still deal with such abuse.
 
At the end of the day, I feel he should do the right thing and move away to another country for his football and perhaps to better pastures.
 
However, while it can be fair to say that more blame can be placed on Suarez for the whole incident, Evra was also just as guilty for the disgraceful scenes at Old Trafford.
 
What was the point of taunting Suarez right in his face at the end of the match? It added nothing to the footballing spectacle and instead brought more controversy to the whole affair.
 
It was a case of two very stupid actions by two very stupid individuals that has dragged the reputable name of the Premier League down the gutter.
