‘He’s a show boater’ - I’ve seen Phil, Raz, Mahrez and Bernie all take the piss on the pitch. I don’t see the issue with this.
‘He sulks’ - you ever seen KDB on the pitch when things don’t go his way?
‘He exaggerates contact’ - Does this not apply to Raz, Grealish and Mahrez etc?
‘He’s always trying to get players sent off’ - Like we applauded Fernandinho for doing against PSG in the CL?
I understand why people don’t like him. He’s flashy and arrogant but that doesn’t detract from him being a world class footballer.
The main stereotypes about him being lazy and a bad influence were also disproved when we played PSG. He’s was the only PSG player who busted a gut and looked like he cared. Was also interesting seeing Phil asking for his shirt.
