Skrtel's stamp was probably closest to Costa's second stamp, with Costa's first being the more heinous of the two. I suspect the difference in media reaction is because
A. The incident occurred very late on and couldn't affect the outcome
B. The culprit's team lost anyway
C. Liverpool isn't a dominant force like Chelsea
It's obviously not right, but they exist to sell papers and as such tend not to be moral fair. The outrage of Chelsea fans is pretty amusing, though. Costa's a turd of a human being & Skrtel is a thug. Get over it, your horrible club is going to win the title and you don't care, apparently, so stop whining.
Also, Rodgers put his foot in his mouth by saying that Skrtel was going for the ball, though. He should have either condemned it or just feigned ignorance.
Obviously the reaction to Gerrard's antics is disgusting, but it's hardly unexpected. I've seen people blame Herrera while some prominent pundits have said that Rodgers is responsible because this game had Gerrard's name "written all over it" and he had the right to teach the manager a lesson for not picking him and allowing him to bring that "desire" from the start.
I think it is clear that in order to be a Studge, you also have to love your mother.
Or maybe for the Manchester United fans to apologise for saying that Park Ji Sung eats dogs back in 2006.
