You've not seen Gabriel Jesus dive/feign being hit etc?... Have you not watched a single video of him?
Exaggerating is completely different to inventing. The difference between a dive and going to ground after contact.
At least Jesus is 19 though, and not 29. We can hope he'll grow out of it, Otamendi clearly won't.

Just not sure why he's doing here. He was very good apart from this and the first 2 goals where he could have done more.
The whole team was playing well for most of the first half. Otamendi was our best centre back today & probably 2nd best defender but by the end of the game, was ciminally dogshit.
I don't think any top 6 team in any top league in europe, would swap our back 4 for theirs. It$s one thing conceding goals against the run of play but it's another, going to pieces.
I think that he has to be first choice in that respect though as the others are even worse, especially Stones, unfortunately.

Well I asked for an example of him doing what Otamendi did, and you came up with something different.
Also he's 1 of 6 South American's in the squad and he's the only one who does it, so saying it's a South American thing is like using Ashley Young to represent English football.

You want me to come up with him pretending to be headbutted?...I came up with him pretending to be hit in the face and feigning being hurt(like Otamnedi did), but apparently him doing that is ok because the player brushed his neck with the blunt force equivalent of being hit with fabric softner.
Please take 90mins out of your day and go and watch a Brazillian football match and then come back to me.
I swear you just argue for the sake of it

Played them onside for the first 2 goals, he's a bit of a lone wolf rather than playing as an integral part of the back four. Has a few good games and some fucking awful ones, he'd be a decent rotation option if we had two top notch CBs.MotM today, closely followed by Yaya.
