Gerrard "is a diver"

[El Jefecito]

Sorry mate. Did not mean to be a *******.

I just wanted to put this out because when I found this out I realised that probably less then 1% of the people I talk to about football knew this.

This is worth remembering when a player goes down in the box.

I did not take it that way at all, I'm grateful for the information that you provided. I'm glad you gave me the opportunity not to be one of the 1%

[El Jefecito]

You get the feeling if Gerrard killed some man 99% of Liverpool fans would say it wasn't his fault and stick up for him.

I'll say no more.

I think you'll find that most are not as cyclopian as you are!

Gerrard did not dive for the Friedel incident. What the tv pundits dont show you is that Friedel took away both of Gerrard's legs and he came at such speed that he ended up a few meters from the incident.














The only reason that might not have been a penalty was because the ball was going out of play. If Gerrard had wanted a penalty, he didnt need to leave his trailing leg. He could have just stopped there and waited for Friedel to go through him.

But it wasn't!! The man just tripped up and fell onto his knife which he was holding to cut his sarnies.

Stevie admitted that the first was NOT a penalty. So post all the pictures you want.

Did they ever catch that sniper?

Difficult one to argue against

And I have posted Stevie's statement previously in the thread in case you have missed. I am merely trying to point out that Stevie did not dive, contrary to claims by the media and our fans.

Incase you have missed this also

Sorry, Didn't mean to sound dismissive, just trying to point out that a) SG hung his leg out in the hope to get the penalty and b) that he admitted that he didn't do a very good job at it

I have watched the incident a few times now and what is evident is that Gerrard did not go down because of the foul on his trailing right leg which he supposedly left there but because Friedel also went through his other standing leg and because of that he fell down.

Sorry mate, don't quite understand. Do you think he went down easy?

if you look at the replay from the sidelines you can see that gerrard starts to fall down before contact is made, if you look at the footage behind gerrard you see he sticks out his right leg so friedel will catch it. and if gerrard hadn't fallen down and would have gone for the ball no way would friedel have caught his second leg...

Would you get out of the way in the penalty area if you thought a defender was about to foul you ?
