Brendan Rodgers has hit out at the unjust vilification of striker Luis Suarez after more diving allegations were levelled at him.Only a couple of weeks ago the Northern Irishman felt the need to not only to speak out publicly about the treatment the Uruguay international was receiving on the pitch but also raise the subject with referees chief Mike Riley.In Sunday's goalless draw at home to Stoke, Suarez went down theatrically in the penalty area which led to Potters manager Pulis calling for three-match bans for players who dive.
Defender Robert Huth has, however, escaped punishment despite appearing to stamp on Suarez after the Football Association confirmed the incident was seen by officials at the time and therefore no further action can be taken. That has left Rodgers outraged.
«As manager of this football club I find it incredible that in nearly all the coverage about Luis Suarez this weekend, very little focus has been placed on the fact that he was actually the victim of a stamping incident within the first five minutes of the game,».
«At this moment there seems to be one set of rules for Luis and another set for everyone else. I believe some people need to develop a sense of perspective and I also believe in this moment the vilification of Luis is both wrong and unfair.»
