We've all seen the focus on such behaviour in the Premier League recently, but this one's from Italy and it's just so, so bad.
Genuinely comical.

Strictly speaking he got touched so "he had a right to go down" :biggrin:
 
hahaha it's like FIFA! ...computer keeper comes out by default, collides with you but somehow gets away with it, because it's the "keeper" and the computer says so.

brilliant!

The keeper doesn't "get away" with anything, Bonucci dived for no reason :undecided:

It's hard to explain what I mean YV. it's one of the worst dives I have ever seen, but I was trying to compare it to something I've seen on FIFA time and time again. Keeper comes out, wins the ball, but your player makes contact and just goes down like a sack of **** because of the way the game is programmed. If it was a real football match, the player would be booked for diving, but it's a fault on the game where players just hit the floor like a sack of **** under any contact by the computer keeper. This dive was so awful, it looked similar and reminded me of it. <ok>

Ah, I thought you were defending Bonucci :D
 
The worst thing about it for me is that Bonucci basically dives instead of scoring.
He pulls the ball away from the prone keeper and he could just boot it into the net, but he takes a dramatic tumble and makes himself look like a massive twat.
If he'd have just swiveled and kicked it in, then it'd be a fantastic goal with a perfectly timed run, killing off the game.
Rather than being the hero, he ended up apologising on Twitter and having the piss taken out of him all over the world.
 
<laugh> Very, very true. Twitter, Facebook, Myspace and whatever the next thing that's going to overtake them all is. ****e.

And Instagram. If you need 5 different filters on a picture of yourself to make you look good then you probably shouldn't be taking pictures of yourself in a mirror and sharing it with the World.
 
Saw half of that match, the most boring cr@p match I've seen for some time, Palermo would not survive in the championship never mind the prem
