Rafa used that trick for ages. Worked pretty well for him. In fact, it was only when he started speaking English when things started to go downhill.Off topic, my apologies, but it's also high time Suarez started speaking in English! I bet he can but he's still relying on translators even for LFCTV!
It's possible, but I certainly don't agree he wouldn't find sanctuary elsewhere. The Ajax fans idolised him and so will the fans of the next club he plays for. Only in this country would some of his own fans go around calling him a cnut.
I was actually thinking of the kicking he is on the wrong end of and the accusations of cheating and diving he receives .It's possible, but I certainly don't agree he wouldn't find sanctuary elsewhere.

Isn't it worrying that anything other than the party line, gets you in trouble with the FA as a player?
Id prefer finishing 12th with the Sterling, Suso and co giving a good impression rather than 7th with that twat embarassing our club every week...

Correction. I forgot Switzerland and Australia.
Whats so unbelievable with my post? do you really care about the difference between 7th and 12th?Fuck me. Unfuckingbelievable.
I know you live in Switzerland but surely you're not that cut off from real fresh air are you? Perhaps you are...

A couple of millions but beside that, i wouldnt give a shit
I'm not bothered that he dived. I'm more bothered that it was a shit dive.
Look at Gareth Bale, Nani, Welbeck, Young etc. They reap the benefits of diving week in and week out yet there is little backlash. Why shouldn't we?
Fark also made a great point in the match thread about the absurdity of Stoke and Tony Pulis moralizing about diving whilst they play in such a dirty and yes, cheating manner.
reprimand him internally etc ...
As Keni said, it's more about how shit he is at it. Everyone's getting a bit too moral about it all, it's ok for Shawcross and Huth to kick shite out of people and get away with it every week, every season, it's still cheating, just more subtle. And Suarez does get man handled and kicked in most games and it goes without punishment, so why shouldn't he play them at their own game? Someone just needs to take the fule to one side and show him how to be more subtle about it, if he actually tried to get back up straight away it might actually win him a few fouls.
As for the point about him feigning injury, that's fair enough, but he got stamped on yesterday and no one fucking batted an eyelid.
Isn't it just better to hate your own players though? I mean, call them cunts and hope they get sold, or benched
He did dive. However, he did get his ankle pulled by Wilson. Had he gone down there, it's fine. He dove afterward, so yes - reprimand him internally etc ...
Yup, and then they'll wonder why Bale, Young, Wellbeck etc all get penalties after blatant dives and no one cares (even their own fans). Oh well, we are the best fans for a reason!!!
Its more the overall attitude that irks me most of the time more than the diving...the arm-waving, shouting at refs, sarcastic smile, diving..all of this combined. When he gets the ball, he just gives the impression he's looking for the contact to get the foul or penalty in the box, rather than trying to score.Well if you get easily embarrassed by Luis's divey antics Tony I'm not sure how you'd cope with the shame of twelfth place.
This would happen in most work environments.
Suarez, 25, went to ground easily towards the end of the 0-0 draw between the two clubs at Anfield and was once again labelled a 'diver' by post-match comments.
However, the Liverpool man was left with stud marks to his torso after Robert Huth appeared to stamp on him earlier in the game and Rodgers believes that the focus surrounding his player is in the wrong place.
"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," Rodgers told the club's official website.
"At this moment there seems to be one set of rules for Luis and another set for everyone else.
"Diving and simulation is obviously a wider issue in football and one that we all agree has to be eradicated from our game but there were other incidents this weekend that didn't seem to generate the same coverage.
"No one should be distracted by the real issue here, both at Anfield and at another game played on Sunday, when Luis and another player were hurt in off-the-ball incidents that went unpunished but were caught on TV cameras.
"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.
"I will continue to protect the values, spirit and people of this great club and game while searching for a consistent level of results in order to make progress on the field."

You're right, my memory has let me down. He used to do that thing where he'd say he didn't understand the question, when he didn't want to answer it.I think Rafa spoke in English right from the start. I don't recall ever hearing him speak through an interpreter.
