That's why people hate Zaha. Like Dele Alli he always tries to "manufacture" a pen . You can call it clever, skilful, cunning. It's just basic cheating and should be stamped out.

Palace gifted 2 goals by the ref
>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>>
No gifted two goals by our two doziest players. Not a brain cell between them.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Not Xhakas biggest fan but that was a clear dive. He stated on his feet and tried to make the tackle. Draw was fair but zaha has conned the ref.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Xhaka did stay on his feet but he moved his left leg across. Wilf, like any attacker, just accepted the invitation.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
That was never a foul,Wilf cheated.

All the opo fans defending Zaha would be incensed if that had been given against them for sure. Great player on his day but proper cheat.

I don't know anyone who hates Zaha tbh but i know plenty (from many clubs) who hate Dele.
Wilf isn't a cheat. If he played for you then you would see how many times he gets fouled/targeted. Teams plan to take him out as he's pretty much our only weapon. It's ridiculous how often it happens tbh.
He took advantage of a mistake by the opposition. End of.
You'd be screaming to high heaven had one of your attackers not done the same.
Poor defending gets punished. Stop blaming Wilf, the Ref or anything/one else.

Zaha leaped over his legs, he’s conned the ref. Full play looks a pen, he leaps over Xhakas legs on replay proper dive. Not saying palace didn’t deserve the draw but that is ridiculous.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Errr.....Zaha leapt over Xhaka's leg because Xhaka blatantly obstructed him. It was a clear pen. No shred of controversy about it. Zaha is a diver and whiny little beeatch. But that was still a penalty.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
No it wasn’t, xhaka stays on his feet , zaha dives over his leg. Agree with you on Lacazette but he’s conned the ref. I can see why the ref gave it but zaha has come a 8.5 👍.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
You can commit fouls while staying on your feet.I don't see how that is relevant. He shifts across to block Zaha's path.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Must be watching two different games, you’ve contradicted yourself in another reply where you said he dived. He dived over Xhaka legs.
----------------------------------------------------------------------
Nothing contradictory about it. Players would often dive when impeded to alert the officials to a foul. The incident may not be enough to take them down in the theatrical ways they go down, but it'd still be a foul. You can be fouled and still dive to exaggerate the obstruction or foul.

On second view though, I'd admit that in my eyes was not a penalty.

What the feck do we do with this lot? I think all returning Isis fighters and their wife should automatically be banged up for 10 years and have their children removed.
