    I’m just surprised he’s not startd rolling around on the floor clutching his face when Marcello looks at him!

    They’ll need audio to prove anything. It wouldn’t suprise me if he did it, but Busquets gets cut out of the camera view as he’s finishing saying whatever he said.

    In his defense, he sort of seems to be making another ‘m’ shape with his mouth on the second syllable (at the 0:17 mark). If one said “mono”, you would have your mouth in the 0 shape, when saying the first ‘o’, and it would more or less stay in that shape, as you would simply put your tongue behind your teeth to make the ‘n’ sound. Simply put, you would only close your lips once and at the very beginning of saying “mono”.

    All that said, it’s some pretty grainy video, and he was clearly saying something offensive by partially covering his mouth and giving a one second utterance. But it doesn’t seem they have enough on this evidence alone.

    Ha Ha, now that, ha ha is not ha ha laughing, its ha ha, someone else picked up on this.I caught it during the match, the covered hand, disguising a cloaked slur.Talk Sport(radio station) raised it yesterday, I tried to contact them and inquire about this!.The Daily Mail also ran a story, no comments were allowed, for legal reasons,(from both outlets) understandably, due to a investigation taking place!I did not realize in the UK,investigations took place in the public domain.The point really of the respect campaign(kick racism out) is that Platini is a major advocate of this initiative, and rightly so, its abhorrent in any walk of life.So why is he not so vocal and offering a view in the case?.Simply he will say there is a ‘internal’ investigation underway?.He….Platini was only to happy to tender his view, when Rooney swore into the camera, yes in an agressive manner, but for various reasons, unknown to ourselves.The resultant media storm raged.
    The point of this, which is more unsavoury, racism or swearing?
    Over to you E.U.F.A.
    Ps the Spanish football federation have history in this type of conduct,UEFA’s darlings.
    More politically corrupt actions.
