Stoke City winger Michael Kightly calls on referees to "stamp" out diving.

Stoke City winger Michael Kightly believes that the actions of Liverpool striker Luis Suarez are 'ruining the game'.

Suarez has been widely criticised for going to ground too easily this season, but Kightly has insisted that something must be done.

"When you get a little touch and he is screaming like he has broken his leg you do think 'is he hurt?' but nine times out of 10, he's not," Stoke winger Kightly told The Sentinel.

"It is something we are trying to get out of the game. Referees have to try to stamp down on it."

Kightly joined Stoke from Wolverhampton Wanderers in the summer.
