Rodgers proud Liverpool won Fair Play title

Liverpool have won the Premier League Fair Play title.

Brendan Rodgers' men edged last season's winners Arsenal into second place, while Everton and Manchester City were also left trailing in third and fourth place.

Luis Suarez's improved performance played a factor in Liverpool's rise from third to first, the Uruguay international striker received just six yellow cards and no red cards in comparison to 10 the season before.

Rodgers paid credit to his playing squad and staff for their exemplary behaviour: "We are delighted to top the Fair Play League at the end of one of our most successful seasons in recent history.

"Our fans, players and staff make up what we like to call the world's greatest football family and as part of that we look to uphold the club's values which include unity, dignity and commitment, which have been shown throughout the season."
