Beren Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 And yes, I don't like what Busquets does at all but he's a great player. What I'm supposed to do? Support Espanyol due to the iniquity it represents? Agreed really. People forget its part of the game. If a player manages to dive and get a foul successfuly. Good for him, what can you do about it? Stop supporting a team because of it? Fuck me, I hope we'll see more diving. My word, do you work for Fifa? How accepting can you be of an evil of the game, man Replace 'diving' with 'fouling' and it's probably an excerpt from the board minutes of a Fifa meeting from 40-50 years ago!

No it's not part of the game at all, it's cheating Thats like saying "Yeah the player was sniffing lines before he went onto the pitch, but it's part of the game, if a player manages to take drugs that succesfully boost his performance, what can you do about it?"

Shak Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Some of the stuff Busquets and a few others do is on another level though. I don't support it but I can understand and even empathise to an extent why players dive and try to win free kicks with the game the way it is now. But the falling down clutching your face and screaming in agony when nothing has happened, and while you're on live TV being watched by millions of people around the world no less... I could never bring myself to do it, and I'd wonder about what kind of men the people who do it are. Do they have no dignity at all? I'd be mortified at the thought of it, sitting there at Christmas dinner or something with your brother in law or some shit at the other side of the table, him knowing exactly what kind of miserable little fairy of a man you are.

Exactly. I don't understand how players forgive each other so readily as well (eg different nationalities at same club). If someone faked injury trying to get me sent off I'd classify them as a Grade A cock and want to have nothing to do with them ever again. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ketsbaia Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Even I am finding it hard to defend Mourinho there. I think he's wonderful, but he's starting to lose the plot. Those comments weren't mind games at all and he's gonna get bollocked for them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ronaldo Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Mourinho's a horrible c*** of a man, would love it if he'd just f*** off from the sport altogether.

Nobody Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Do a search on youtube for Pepe Dani Alves and press the first one. Pepe doesn't even touch Alves, yet Alves had to be stretched off? Feigning cunt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpal78 Posted April 28, 2011 Share Posted April 28, 2011 Do a search on youtube for Pepe Dani Alves and press the first one. Pepe doesn't even touch Alves, yet Alves had to be stretched off? Feigning c***. Absolutely, I initially thought there was minimal contact but that youtube video (can I link it, it's a Frech football show with replay?) shows that there was absolutely no contact coz Alves withdrew his leg. Might still be classified as dangerous coz the foot was raised but no way is that a red card. The way Alves then rolls around holding his shin and knee makes it clear as ever that Barcelona was not just diving and cheating but were looking to get Madrid players sent off. And we have some donkey (hint: has an avatar of an ex world player of the year now more commonly known as fatty) saying that the 'tackle' was worse than De Jong's leg breaker on HBA!
