Brendan Rodgers insists that Luis Suarez must focus on performing for Liverpool this season and forget a difficult 2011-12 campaign.

Liverpool manager Brendan Rodgers thinks that Luis Suarez needs to focus on performing for the Reds this season and forget about the past.

Suarez was once again in the headlines this week, accusing British fans of a "total lack of respect" during Uruguay's national anthem at the Olympic Games group match in Cardiff.

Rodgers wants Suarez to draw a line under the problems of last season in order to get back to his best at Anfield.

He said: "Luis probably still feels a little bit of injustice about last season, but for me the message is that we have to move on.

"We have to move forward. What's happened has happened and let's let it go now, however hard it is. We want to be winning games and doing our best for the football club."

Suarez will join the Liverpool squad for pre-season training next week after Uruguay crashed out of the men's Olympic football tournament in the group stages.
