The gloves come off in Suarez affair

The gloves came off in Liverpool's battle to keep Luis Suarez at Anfield with manager Brendan Rodgers making quite clear that the player's conduct is unacceptable and that he is going nowhere.Suarez seemed to make his position at Liverpool close to untenable after accusing Rodgers of going back on a vow to allow him to leave the club if the Reds failed to qualify for this season's Champions League."There were no promises made, categorically none and no promises broken,Buy Cheap Juicy couture women's T-shirts" Rodgers told reporters in Norway after Liverpool's friendly game on Wednesday night. "Obviously, the remarks I've read, it is bitterly disappointing, but my job is bigger than that. My job is to fight and protect the club.Wholesale Outerwears cheap Outerwears"We have a standard at Liverpool and I will fight for my life to retain it. The Liverpool way is all about being committed to the cause and fighting for the shirt. It's also about dignity and being dignified in how you speak about the club. And it's about unity. If anyone steps outside of those values then I have to deal with it."I will take strong, decisive action, absolutely as there has been total disrespect of the club.Buy Cheap Franklin Marshall Women's Fleece-FM7059 This is a lack of respect of a club that has given him everything. Absolutely everything." Suarez is set to face a club fine for his outburst and his antics seem to have hardened Liverpool's insistence that they will not sell him to Premier League rivals Arsenal. 

Yet even though Rodgers concedes there are "a few bridges to cross" before Suarez can play for Liverpool again, he did not entirely close the door on Suarez. "The reality is we don't want to sell Luis Suarez, it's as simple as that. He is important for what we are trying to do. There have been a couple of offers but no promises broken, that's the reality.Buy Cheap Abercrombie Men's T-shirts"We can understand if he wants to play in the Champions League, but that doesn't mean we've broken any promise. What we are trying to do now is get the correct value for a player, but we know we don't have to sell him.Buy Cheap Chanel dress-CH1105 I don't believe there is a clause in his contract that says he can leave for any sort of price."Suarez was an isolated figure yesterday as he trained alone, with his poor attitude in recent matches being cited as the reason for the decision rather than his comments."Is there a way back for him at Liverpool? There's a few bridges to cross before that can happen. It's about the respect, that's the only thing we look for. This is one of the most iconic football clubs in the world, you can't disrespect it."That's something I will ensure before anything happens in the future. That bridge will need to be crossed."
