It ain't a big issue really...annoying, pathetic, but he ain't the only one doing it, it is rife in other leagues, foreigners and play-acting go hand in hand (no offence to any foreigners, but just look at La Liga, Seria A etc, and you'll see that doing a Drogba is commonplace). It's a shame tho, cos when he stays on his feet he is an amazing player, and deserves credit. It's just a pity he acts like a tit sometimes.

I'm not sure that this foreigners and play acting thing holds up at all. Many English players are terrible for it. It's more the increased big business, win at all costs mentality that surrounds the sport in all countries that is to blame in my eyes.Originally posted by Scratch View PostIt ain't a big issue really...annoying, pathetic, but he ain't the only one doing it, it is rife in other leagues, foreigners and play-acting go hand in hand (no offence to any foreigners, but just look at La Liga, Seria A etc, and you'll see that doing a Drogba is commonplace).

I have to say the two things that bug me most in football at present are how the authorities seem to view tactical diving and fouling as perfectly acceptable. For years now teams like United (and we are not blameless but as we are **** at defending set pieces it doesn't work as well) have taken people out on the break and often not even been carded for it - certainly doing it more than once doesn't equal a sending off. Wes Brown seems to use it as his primary defensive tactic at times. I've talked about the diving thing earlier but it does really grate on me."The man who never alters his opinion is like standing water, and breeds reptiles of the mind."

The commentators sicken me, no attempt to rid the game of the stuff thats ruining it they just have a good old chuckle at cheats, "Fergie time" and all sorts of other stuff.Originally posted by Shaggy View PostI thought exactly the same today.
Amused commentators chuckle about his 'thespian' qualities. Enough of this ****e FFS, he's a ****ing cheat. A continual cheat who ruins almost every game we play against them. I hate him so much.
Damn right. ON MOTD2 on Sunday night Lee Dixon and Mark Bright just went on about how great he was. Why can't one of them call him what he is? A cheat.
Easily my most hated player in the Premier League at the minute, and that is saying something when there are Man U players still breathing.
