We cannot give those wankers any more influence than they already have.Whilst receiving treatment VAR should look at their performance incident, easy to see if it’s genuine, if not then yellow card

Possession me right off how they can't stay up on their feet
Doku and Savinho are trying my patience as well

Hate it!
Hate it even more when our players do it because I used to feel proud of the Kompany, de Jong, Vieira, Barry, Kolarov culture of the club that we didn’t stand for any diving through the team. And that culture lived on through the team for a good decade. Yaya wasn’t a diver, Kun used to always try and stay on his feet, David Silva wasn’t a diver, when Foden first came on the scene one of his biggest plus points was he always tried to stay on his feet.
Now it seems to have all gone out of the window. We’re all at it. The culture has completely changed and I don’t like it with us at all. Even Foden now is one of the ones who’s always on the floor moaning at the ref asking for free kicks when he’s dived. All the younger lads are terrible for it: Doku, Savinho, Lewis…
Palace today were much worse than even we were though. Every time any of them were slightly touched they went rolling around pretending they had stood on a landmine or been hit in the head with a hammer.
This shit is the biggest issue in football!
None of those rainbow armband, poppies, silences or racism rows that everyone makes a fucking meal of for a week then forgets about until it comes round again a year later because none of those issues are a regular occurrence across the sport. The real issue that needs tackling and big awareness drives over is all the diving, feigning injury and cheating in the sport.
It’s ruining the sport!

Maybe if we started the game with a minutes rage at all the twats who dive maybe it would solve it. 50,000 fans all rage-shouting that "salah lives in a diving bell" would be a lovely thing to applaud.Hate it!

The referee doesn’t seem very popular on here but it was really refreshing to see him leave the guy on the deck for about five minutes and let play carry on. They usually crack after about 30 seconds and stop play, if they’re not getting up.
What would have been even more refreshing is if their manager had been fuming at the fucker for leaving them a man down for so long and hooked him straight off.
That’s probably asking a bit too much though.
