I had a good view of this incident.

From where I was I thought it was a clear foul and felt Bale was unfortunate to be booked. Obviously the Liverpool fans commenting on the Sky article disagree, but a few press reports of the game have commented that they thought he was fouled. However, it was a brilliant game and all credit to Liverpool, who were unlucky not to go away with a draw.
COYS!!!!

Bale might win more free-kicks (I don't know if that's true),but he's also been booked for diving,where Suarez doesn't,so he doesn't get it all his own way. I believe they're as bad as each other.
___________________________________________
Suarez hasn't been booked for diving this season, largely because he has only done it once. The one dive that he did was a delayed reaction to a foul, so maybe he should have been booked, maybe not.
However, Suarez received numerous bookings for diving last season, some of which were incorrectly given.

I think I remember Suarez getting booked once for being fouled, this season.

Actually you're right, he did. Against Sunderland. And it was actually a penalty.

It's not worth discussing it with you Toor as your a fooking liar. By saying Gerrard's only done 5 divers in his career just proves that. Felli produced plenty clips of Suarez cheating,yet you found some daft excuse for all but one of them.

Alas
Suarez was booked a few times last season for diving. I don't know where you get this 'Suarez never gets booked for diving' rubbish from? He's had one clear instance where he's dived this season, against Stoke, and he should have been booked for it. For some reason the ref didn't book him. Why should Suarez be punished for the rest of the season because a ref didn't book him for something he did wrong? Does that mean Huth, for example, should be punished for not being sent off for stamping on Suarez?
Also re: Gerrard. Don't just tell us were lying about Gerrard diving. Back it up with something. There are You Tube reels out there with about 5 dives on. Whenever the 'Gerrard diving' topic comes up these get cited as proof. I'd understand if they were over a season. But they're not, they're over his entire career. If you can argue otherwise, without resorting to getting angry, or calling someone a liar, then I'd like to hear it.

Oh and you go on about Gerrard diving, as if he still does it. But then say 'its alright Felliani's cut the using his elbows side of his game out'. When was the last time Gerrard dived?

Alas
Again, when was the last time Gerrard dived?
"Suarez has dived more that once this season,but Youtube is full of the Stoke dive and can't be assed rooting through them all."
Has he, when? No need to root through You Tube videos. Give us instances?
