Alejandro Balbi, who is also Suarez's agent, says the Uruguay international is "very affected" by the punishment but "calm because of the massive support of the club, the coach, his teammates and his captain." Suarez was was handed an eight-match ban on Tuesday when a three-man Independent Regulatory Commission appointed by the FA found him guilty of guilty of misconduct after Evra accused the forward of racially abusing him. Liverpool were furious with the outcome of the disciplinary hearing and have reiterated their support for Suarez. The Liverpool squad earlier on Wednesday expressed their anger at the FA's decision to ban and fine Suarez and along with Reds boss Kenny Dalglish they all wore T-shirts with pictures of Suarez on the front of them ahead of the game at Wigan. Liverpool have two weeks to decide upon a possible appeal against the ban and fine with the club expected to wait until they receive written explanation from the FA over the verdict.
