Optimistic Nut Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Good job there not playing on 5a-side pitch otherwise Rooneys knees would be red raw with all the diving he's been doing. He always has been a diving tw*t. Equally, if not even more so than Ronaldo, yet because he's English doesn't get half the criticism. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest timmy boy Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 The commentators never call it a dive if it's one of there favoured Englishmen, they skirt around the subject.If it was a Villarreal player going down like that, they would of been all over it as a dive.

I think it was at Spurs away last season where he blatently dived, and the commentator laughed it off saying, "He certainly did seem to stumble".

midds Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 The cynical side of me thinks that Man U and Villarreal knew this was going to be a draw. A point each sends both through and lo and behold, that's exactly what it's looking like... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Umer Posted November 25, 2008 Share Posted November 25, 2008 Anyone else see the arsenal goal at the end. It was a dropball in arsenal's half and the kiev player thought fabregas would play the ball backwards (as normal in drop ball) so didn't contest it... but fabregas instead does an amazing ball forward for bendtnar to score! The kiev players were fuming!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The kiev players were fuming!!! I thought it was a free kick to Arsenal with Fabregas passing himself before playing the long ball? Either way, looked very dodgy. Still a class goal, wonderful ball and Bendtner did everything right. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest quklaani Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 An oddity. The only defense you can make of Rooney is that he's a fucking woeful diver. Since the infamous one against Campbell, I've never seen him actually earn a penalty from diving, he tends to just get booked or ignored. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neil Posted November 26, 2008 Share Posted November 26, 2008 As much as SAF has a sensational managerial record bursting with success at every corner, I still can't agree with his general character. He is essentially admitting Rooney dives, yet still has to have a go at Pires. The old "its ok coz others do it so lets talk about them instead". And yes, Alex, of course people are gonna target Ronaldo. As long as they're fair and strong tackles then tough, he's gonna get the odd bump. If he can get up from them and continue to play well then maybe he is as good as the media would have you know. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
