    Let's hope the ref brings his notebook and not his scoring cards with him.

    If they do maybe they can lend it to Sagbo and Brady

    Diving is widespread and we could name divers at every Premier League club - but there's little doubt that Man Utd are the current leaders in the field (even ahead of Chelsea!). Januzaj's emergence has put a real, er, spring in their step.

    I think Ashley Young might just be the most hated player in the Prem.

    Suarez does at least have Liverpool fans behind him, but no bastard at Man Utd seems to like Young.

    It's one or two players at every club. United have Januzaj and Young but we have Sagbo and Figueroa. I don't think any club particularly dives more than any other, apart from Palace of course!

    I think anything involving Man United is always blown out of proportion because it's so cool to hate them. If they get a penalty it's because of certain refs bowing down to them. If they score in injury time it's 'fergie time', etc. There might be some truth in the claim that big clubs get more decisions, but I don't think Man U get more than the other big clubs.

    Takes a lot to top John Terry.

    Not sure it does, Chelsea fans idolise him. There's plenty of other football fans that like him too.

    I think he's most hated by those with no interest in football but read the tabloids and heat magazine.

    Man Utd must be his second club. Oh well at least it's not L***s.

    Haha, the last paragraph certainly but clearly I was wrong thinking they had no more diving players than other teams! Rooney and Welbeck too! You don't expect it from them.
