Liverpool manager, Brendan Rodgers, was not too pleased when Luiz Suarez admitted to his diving, in the match against Stoke in October, to win the penalty.

In an interview with the Uruguayan international, Suarez admitted to diving to con the referee and win the penalty. Suarez, who has always been in the spotlight regarding his antics, admitting to diving was the last straw for the Liverpool boss. Brendan Rodgers has always defended his star striker on these matters, but this incident has left the manager fuming.

Rodgers said “It’s unacceptable. I’ve spoken to Luis and it will be dealt with internally. Diving is not something we advocate. Our ethics are correct.” He went on to say that “He has been totally understanding on where I am coming from as manager of the club. This is a big club and, whatever people do say goes around the world, and what was said was wrong and not acceptable. There is no-one bigger than the club or the club’s image.”
