LONDON: Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers says Luis Suarez’s admission of diving is “unacceptable” and he will be dealt with “internally” by the club.The 25-year-old striker admitted “falling” to win a penalty when Liverpool faced Stoke in October in an interview with Fox Sports Argentina.Rodgers revealed the club would take action against the Uruguayan. “I think it’s wrong. It’s unacceptable. I’ve spoken to Luis and it will be dealt with internally,” he said.“Diving is not something we advocate. Our ethics are correct. “He has been totally understanding on where I am coming from as manager of the club,” Rodgers continued.“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.”He added diving was “not something we associate with as a club of this standing”.Suarez’s admission was in relation to Liverpool’s goalless draw with Stoke, where he was criticised by Potters manager Tony Pulis after the game.Pulis called for stronger action on diving when asked about Suarez in light of Rodgers’ comments.“They should look at it on a Monday after the games have been played at the weekend, and people who have been caught simulating should be punished.
