I think one of the reasons that adds to English players getting away with it more is that they hardly never then stay down pretending to be injured.
I would really prefer for English and England players to adhere to a higher moral code. I like to watch Gerrard play and Rooney is my favourite active player but it's very disheartening seeing them dive. Wish they would basically follow what they say with their actions.
Don't think it's xenophobic to say foreign players have brought diving into our game, it's pretty much fact. But there should certainly be no discrimination in handing out 3 match bans after the fact if the refs miss it.
FIFA and UEFA need to get their fingers out too instead of openly letting it go on for years.

We might have a potential Stephen Ireland on our hands...
Not going to bother translating the whole thing but just a couple:
"A cowboy without his horse isn't a real cowboy" and "This car represents who I am and what I'm like".
Can't really disagree at all. They are very efficient and can produce some great moments of football at times and are obviously favourites to win the league. But overall so aggravating to watch.
Typical, best not ever watch them. Just infuriating.
Funny how no matter how much stick Drogba gets for his theatrics, the guy has no sense of shame and such a short term memory. Such an ugly team all the way through.
Also I don't like forums that have so many subsections... wouldn't the point of a Championship forum be to have fans of all teams commenting on everything?
Having parts for all teams is just sectioning fans.
