    Maybe if teams stopped kicking him he wouldn't have to go down? It's ridiculous how many times he was fouled last night. Did the ref forget his cards last night...<whistle>

    It did take a long time for Veratti to get booked.....he was getting about a bit.

    Not what I said at all. Every time he's fouled, it is 100% a foul. End of discussion in my view.

    BBC ex-playing pundits have their say on 'Diving' and basically all say what I've said many times here and previous incarnation, players have a special quantum relationship with the strong-weak nuclear forces during a match and 'use the opportunity to gain an advantage'. In short they all fall over very easily, some like to add a flourish, none think it is wrong, none think it is cheating. To a person they live in a bubble of self denial that drives everyone else crazy but apparently we are all wrong.

    That said it is driven by commercial professionalism and not some sense of outraged injustice or moral imbalance. Until fairness conquers greed professional sport will always drive fans nuts. It'll never happen and we should really worry when it occurs in amateur sport when all is at stake is pride and winning.

    <laugh> Hilarious mate. Hazard goes down easily in almost every game he plays. In the cup game v us at the Bridge, he threw himself down and screamed when Johnson literally just touched him <laugh>

    The first leg peno, he screamed on his way down but the replay shows it was a dive all day long, contact is not always = to foul. That was no foul by Can.

    Great player, does get fouls a lot, because he draws many of the fouls intentionally, but he also falls over regularly too, not seeing that.. you must have 10" thick lenses, and forgot to wear them on match day <laugh>

    There is not one player of that sort on the planet that does not go down easily. Yet you think Hazard doesn't <laugh>
