Wouldn’t touch Gordon with a barge pole. Once he’s learned not to dive I may then look. One reason I won’t be unhappy if Miggy goes is his tendency to be blown over by gusts of wind. It needs stamping out of the game. Should be automatic red card and 1 match ban. That would help.
Unless it's an England player in a world cup semi final in which case it's fine because only the player knows if he dived.
I agree sadly. He's a good player but he feels that if another player might have touched him as lightly as can be, he feels completely justified in going down. That's his core belief. I don't want him.
Perhaps you show the incident that might help rather than quotes. There is blatant diving (no contact), there is possible diving ( contact but was it enough to count as a foul) and there is not diving ( where the contact was sufficient to count as a foul). Without re seeing the incident it is impossible to comment particularly with someone who claimed the Burnley player kicking S Longstaff in the head wasn’t a foul or penalty.
I don't like soft pens that's not changed, but if we sign Gordon it's because he's a good player and as you also said what goes around comes around.
Also on one of the incidents Gordon claimed he felt contact and, therefore, went down ie due to his feeling the contact as opposed to the contact causing him to fall down. Therefore he dived and essentially admitted it.
An interesting back peddling there mate. You said it happens and told me I should watch more premier league. You justified sterling and went as far as saying only he knows... Same applies to Gordon. Anyway would your rule would involve doing a lie detection device pitch side?
Making it up again. Read what I have written. As I’ve said before, it helps. No back tracking at all except in your mind. Gordon has admitted diving, Sterling hasn’t. And you still haven’t shown the clip re Sterling so that it can be put into context. But keep talking you might convince yourself.
How can I make up a screenshot that you wrote Essentially you are OK with diving if it can't be proved.. Even when you can see it like we did with sterling.
