Anatomy of a Diving Cheat - How do we defined a Cheaterito?

malg said:
In this day and age of diving all over the place the thread is a bit pointless. We all have divers, however some are more guilty than others. The Rags do have a good few, but so do other clubs - the reason we notice them more than any others is because of who they are. Balotelli isn't as bad as I thought he would be - and that's a positive.

How about this to make up your mind?

If you are not convince then how about this

Blimey,you must have been expecting Tom Daley then.....

To be fair,the majority of refs are that hopeless that staying on your feet doesn't do you any favours in the main and so 'exaggerating' the foul is sometimes a necessity in order to receive the rightful decision
Saying that,Mario's theatrical moment last night was embarrassing for the lad,en-grained from his development i realise but he needs to learn to cut that sh1t out.

Watch the clip @ 2:13. Isn't Rooney's 'scissors' reminiscent of Evra takedown of Ramires who deserved a CL penalty at SB. Would that have change the outcome of CL history if Chelsea was given the penalty?
What the heck was the spiteful ginger twat going over Samba's body & stamping his right foot on the turf over the side of Samba's head @ 2:06?

Nani is a diver. Hernandez took a dive against Newcastle and worst of all, he could have had a pen shout if he didn't dive. No shit I'm a United fan, if I picked that screename in a clever attempt to try to hide that I'd be insulting everyones intelligence. I just found this thread amusing because the OP had to take a significant amount of time out of his day to put all those clips together, and the next game after Wembley Balotelli takes one absolutely horrendous dive, and one or two more subtle dives. If you can dish it, take it.

When was this horrendus dive that no one else in the world other than you have picked up

I was furious over that because this shit happens to us every year in the CL and you're about to experience it first hand next season. But I don't believe it changed the fact that the rags were simply better than us over 2 legs and did deserve to go through based on their performance (and lack of ours). As you know Chelsea's season hit an iceberg and we just hadn't figured out how the use the life rafts by the time we had to play them.

We can beat them, we usually do and during that CL tie they just wanted it a lot more; phantom penalties or otherwise.

All that aside it was a fucking injustice and I hope their exit involves some travesty of decision making by a UEFA reff and a sufficient pounding by the opposing team.

Honestly, that was a turning point the defining moment and thats a FACT.

With 10 players & Drogba as the lone striker scoring, do you think Park would have been left unmarked? Chelsea would have played differently parking the bus for PKs and or with a different mindset.
Thats why I called that a defining moment.

Went down clutching his face when replays showed not only was the opposing players' hand nowhere near his face, but also barely touched him. Nani would have been proud.
