But they don't go un-noticed. Before Suarez decided to step up the cheating and outdo them all, the press were all over bale and young. There's no anti-lfc conspiracy going on.

This is nothing but fishing and sh*t-stirring from the gutter press. Moyes was asked about diving and Suarez and he answered generally. Easy to put a more negative spin on it, but you can be sure he didn't bring it up and in no way was it a personal assault on Suarez from Moyes. Nothing story, imo. Just predictable journalism to stoke the flames before the big derby game tomorrow.

As we all know Luis is a bit of a drama queen when it comes to diving and so does everyone else and this is what the Everton ploy will be,they will have noticed that Luis gets very wound up as the game goes on especially if he's had a few misses and hasn't yet scored. I hope brendan has a word with him because goodison will be up for it and although its mostly everton that gets the yellow cards it may well suarez's turn? Every Everton fan will be on his back as usual so Luis.....stay calm! eek

it is a witch hunt by racist fa and racist media. on top of that the simple truth is luis is such a threat to other teams managers will try anything to disadvantage him so they jump on this bigoted bandwagon (raffa experienced the same treatment as a foreign manager).

all players dive. all of them. so to single luis out is nothing more than a childish farce, and for any lfc fan to join in and reinforce it is nothing less than footballing treason.


Luis Garcia, He drinks sangria
He came from Barca, to bring us Joy
He's five foot seven, he's football heaven
please don't take my Luis away.

suarez will have injuries all season if he doesn't dive, don't blame him in some respects, but he could dive 'better' !

agreed. but he is there to do what he has to do to get the points on the board. let him get on with it and ignore the unjustified media circus surrounding him.

I used to slate Ronaldo for it all the time,its cheating and embarrasing,just because Suarez is our player it doesnt make it acceptable now.

Gary Neville did a very interesting section on Sky sports about Diving, should be on youtube. Point being, it's not a black and white issue, so managers saying 'hand out retrospective bans' is just unhelpful. I think Gary Neville showed one or two clips of Suarez last year (was a very neutral talk from him) getting booked for what were clearly fouls because he was viewed to have dived from the ref. It's so ingrained in the game now that calling it cheating is dangerous. It's no more cheating than shielding the ball, blocking the goalkeepers path out from a corner, gaining a couple of feet at a free kick, the wall moving forward at a free kick, wasting time down in the corner at the end of a game, etc etc etc.

Everybody has done it, it's also hard to distinguish between flat out diving and going down easy or anticipating contact etc etc.

Even our very own talisman Steven Gerrard is guilty of it. Hell, I think if we're being honest, Steven G played for that penalty in Istanbul VERY MUCH so. Were we complaining then?

think your being paranoid myself, there is no Witch Hunt only in your mind, why would there be a Witch Hunt by the so called racist F.A. and Media towards Suarez and Liverpool F.C. what would there agenda be or what would they gain by it. I think views like this can work against the Club as it can turn situations like this into siege mentalities or us against the world situations which nobody gains from, so we dont want that.
