Dalglish in Wenger 'cheat' fury and calls on the FA to take action
Going over: Luis Suarez wins a penalty for Liverpool against Arsenal
Kenny Dalglish has called on the FA to examine Arsene Wenger’s comments after the Arsenal manager used Luis Suarez as an example in an outspoken attack on cheats.
Wenger said Suarez ‘went overboard’ to earn Liverpool a penalty in a game at Anfield earlier this month after he collided with goalkeeper Wojciech Szczesny, even though television replays showed there was contact between the pair.
Liverpool boss Dalglish was incredulous that Wenger claimed ‘nobody touched’ Suarez and queried why the Frenchman did not feel the need to raise the subject immediately after the match, which Arsenal won 2-1.
Dalglish said: ‘He (Wenger) had a go at who? He never said that to me. He said it was a fantastic performance and they were very fortunate to win.

Accusations: Wenger said Suarez went down too easily
'I’m sure the FA will look into that and take him to task. If you can’t comment on the England manager’s position then you can’t comment on a player can you?’
Meanwhile, Dalglish has shrugged off speculation involving Paris Saint-Germain and Suarez, insisting that the Uruguayan’s interview with French TV station Canal Plus was taken out of context. Suarez was quoted as saying he would ‘love’ to play at the same club as his compatriot Diego Lugano.

DIVING INTO ROW ... Dalglish is angry with WengerKENNY DALGLISH wants the FA to throw the book at Arsene Wenger for labelling Liverpool striker Luis Suarez a diver.
Arsenal boss Wenger enraged his Kop counterpart by accusing Suarez of conning a penalty during the Gunners' 2-1 win at Anfield last week.
Liverpool chief Dalglish insisted: "I'm sure the FA will look into it and take him to task.
"If you cannot comment on the England manager's position, then I'm sure he can't comment on From Back Page another player. Wenger never said that to me (Suarez dives), he said it was a fantastic performance and Arsenal were very fortunate to win."
The race row which has dogged Suarez has raised doubts over his future and Paris St Germain are keen on the hitman.
Suarez did little to cool speculation by admitting he would love to play alongside Uruguay pal Diego Lugano in France. He said: "Yes, I could come to Paris."
