Luis Suarez - the only player guilty of diving in the history of the game.
And I suppose in his mind we're not going to do anything about the officials that ignore blatant fouls on Suarez in the box either? Or on any player on Stoke against any other opponent, for that matter? |

@ the Luis .gif
So apparently Lee Mason said he saw the Huth incident clearly and decided to take no action. Apparently today the FA decided to not hand out a ban for Huth's actions as well. 
I sincerely fear for Luis now. I watched a comp of the bad tackles on him so far this season and it's not going to get any better. Think it'd be best if he was sold if it keeps up like this.

| Honestly, I don't think Huth was trying to stamp on Suarez. I think he just dragged his foot over his chest, without putting much pressure on it. They were so tangled up, I can definitely see why there was no punishment. |

He could've put his foot somewhere else and not on Suarez. Huth knew Suarez landed right in front of him. Don't really know what else to say besides that.

It was step on his chest, or step on his head, or twist wildly and fall on him. He doesn't really 'stamp' on him anyway. Just taps his foot on him. Suarez's reputation for diving is not going to help him in this situation. |

He couldn't have possibly put his foot anywhere else? Really? Okay then, agree to disagree.
No one sane is saying Suarez has been a saint, but Suarez's past should not lead to this.
Edit: Interesting seeing Yaya with a Suarez-like dive and seeing how the media covers it.

Huth is looking directly at Suarez and puts his foot on him, it's deliberate without a doubt.

Rodgers about Alan Shearer
| Quote: | | "I saw someone recently criticising Joe Allen for not playing risk passes. Unbelievable. So-called pundits who don't know the dynamics of a team and how it functions," |

Yeah, love Rodgers taking a shot at anyone criticizing Joe Allen and his role right now. Did Alan miss the memo on Joe filling in for Lucas while he's out?
Love that #BlameSuarez is trending too.

I think everyone's always known that, but the vilification in this country is ridiculous. Especially when you have stupid decisions like not banning someone for stamping on him.

Can you imagine the public outrage and further vilification if he bit someone while at Liverpool? If anything he's better now. I'm not disagreeing that he's treated poorly, but that article shows why he's a big part of that.
