Man Utd boss slams Gus Poyet comments
Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson has hit out at comments made by Brighton manager Gus Poyet, after the Uruguayan coach appeared defend the actions of Liverpool striker Luis Suarez.
Suarez reportedly used racist language during Liverpool's match against Man Utd earlier in the season, with comments directed at Patrice Evra.
This week Poyet defended Suarez's actions, and put it down to a difference in cultures. But Alex Ferguson refuses to buy the justification from Poyet:Â
"I'm more surprised by Gus Poyet's remarks. They're inappropriate at a time when people throughout the world are condemning racism. He's chosen the wrong time.
"I can understand why he wants to support a man of his country, but there's a way of going about it."
