Luis Suarez
Chelsea manager Jose Mourinho said Liverpool ace Luis Suarez did an acrobatic swimming pool jump in order to get a penalty, during Sunday's clash with the Reds.
Suarez was involved in a contentious incident towards the end of Liverpool's 2-1 defeat of Chelsea -when he went down under a challenge from Samuel Eto'o after losing the ball to Cesar Azpilicueta.
But the officiating referee - Howard Webb ignored his appeal for a penalty, thus, enabling Chelsea to complete a victory that took them to within two points close to league leaders Arsenal, leaving Liverpool six points off the pace in fifth.
And Mourinho believes Suarez was only trying to do an acrobatic when he fell down in the 18-yard box.
"Suarez lost the duel with Azpilicueta, Azpilicueta has the ball, Azpilicueta is leaving the box with the ball, and now he (Suarez) is doing an acrobatic swimming pool jump to try to get a penalty," said Mourinho.
"Because he's so clever that he also knows that he's in the area where he has the Liverpool supporters behind (him).
"But Webb is only 10 metres away and I think the only mistake Webb did was not to give him a yellow card."
"He (Suarez) is a very nice boy, he does everything to win and Brendan (Rodgers) is doing a fantastic job on him, because he's changed," Mourinho added.
"There's no doubt that he's changed. But when the situation is like this, and you are losing, (there) comes the nature of the player, the wild nature of the player or the cultural nature of the player.
"Culturally, people from that area (Uruguay), they like it. But it's not only that area – there is a corner in Europe where I belong to (Portugal) that they also like it."
