Those knocking his dive and then wonder why we get jobbed most seasons on pens, freekicks etc shouod realise its part of the game and has been for ages, sure youll all moan if we won 6-9 points over a season by it as well...

Utterly naive

He dives in the derby and wins a pen i will be made up like if it gets us a win

Exactly.

I'm certain the people whinging about diving would be over the moon if he won us a pen in the cup final to win is the pot.
 
I didn't see his dive. Tbh I don't want to see our players diving. There's a big difference between simulation and, for example, leaving a leg hanging to win a free-kick/pen.

I still think he should dive, sometimes if it's not utterly blatant.

Just his scream sounds like a 10 year old.
 
If a player feels contact when he's running with the ball, he's got every right to go to the floor. It's just the way the game is now. Arteta used to do it all the time when we would stick him on the wing.

Wouldn't really class him as a diver, he's more eager to want to stay on his feet, i didn't see the dive though

The dive was apparently under no contact at all, pure simulation.

I don't like it because a) it is cheating, even if it is common in the game b)it has a very short time benefit as once you get a reputation for doing it you start losing out on valid calls.

If that makes me naive so be it.
