But I'll admit it, he's made the most of minimal contact and won a pen deffo once this season and maybe twice depending on your point of view I wouldn't strongly argue either. You can't admit it though which is strange.
Lingards shoulder was touched, and he fell to the floor like a sack of ****, in the opposite direction from which he was being pulled. There was no tackle made by the Burnley defender at all so why did Lingard lose his footing? You can argue sometimes that a touch of the shoulder could put you off balance if you are sprinting at full speed, but they were standing more or less motionless in the box. It was a ****ing dive, no argument.
I can not believe you think the rest of us are so ****ing stupid that you have to explain that someone coming here from outer space is an alien
That would be logical Bodacious ... but it didn't quite work that way in the event ... you see those aliens have been here for quite some time and now pose as an ageing rock band touring the working men's clubs and residential care homes circuit in Dorset ... they try and remain inconspicuous but the lead singer gives them away with his voice ... a pale and flawed imitation of a human larynx
Matthew has Stretfordical glaucoma ... a rare eye condition that causes a rosy glow to peripheral vision on specific occasions
The gravel gargling ginger cum bucket Shaun Dyche called it after the game. Lingard has felt a hand on his shoulder and gone down like a sack of ****. Unfortunately that is somehow tolerated in the modern game, even though most people, fans, refs and indeed players know that it is play acting i.e. cheating.
Shane Long did the same for Saints at ours ... Papys Mendy is a tiny guy but his hand on Long's shoulder caused the big tough Irish Centre Forward to go down like an opportunist hooker at a champagne bachelor party the golden rule is 'don't touch' these days
Lingard has just about every ****ing Gooner rattled to the core lately by the way, so Piskie flipping and flapping like a drowning whippet is of absolutely no surprise
The vid has been posted on other threads ... albeit it emanates from a Liverpool fan doing a Salah comparison ...
Flipping He felt a hand on his shoulder and threw himself to the ground mate, no need to dress it up as anything else.
