No need to talk about your team like that, although yes from this evidence they are the biggest divers, those bin-dippers

How the faack they got penalities on the back of some of these dives, I will never know.
Kane got pushed from the back yesterday and against Newcastle, the guy went down and did a "superman" like Campbell put in on TV! Campbell was laughing about.

Jose said he's seen given for less...Yeah just watch that link

kane needs to stop throwing himself to the ground thats for sure. our players dont get decisions given for it though, which is good to see, not sure why they persist with it.

if the dele one is what im think of he didnt even look for a free kick and got straight back up, obviously he has history going over easy but that was nothing. how can you expect a player to get booked for a dive when he gets straight back up and gets on with it without looking for a free kick?

Dele was the momentum that took him down and if you've ever played the game you would know

But look at that link, for a player to tip-toe into the box and fall backwards, yes backwards when touched that is an absolute cheat...Biggest cheat.

Discussed it yesterday, actually.

Think that chip on your shoulder needs removing, OP.

I find it very disappointing that the fans on here who were creating mass hysterics about Mohammed Salah and were also saying that VAR would cost LFC, yet where are these same fans now ? Why aren't we discussing Harry Kane and Deli Ali at all ?



regarding this, Salah gets the decisions given to him, Kane and Dele dont. Not really rocket science is it. VAR has already shown this season it is nonsense anyway, the refs are the ones who are inconsistent and dont know what theyre doing.

take yesterday for example. Xhaka penalised for 7 cynical fouls and got booked in injury time, spurs player makes 1 cynical foul and got booked.

Salah gets decisions cause he’s quite often actually fouled, some have been sort of course but enough to make the ref give them. Not saying he’s never dived mind but he’s not at it every week.

If you genuinely think refs are out to give Liverpool pens and deny other teams pens your tinfoil hat will come in handy.

Kane running across defenders, falling down and crying all the time for a pen. VAR and refs needs to stop this tool.

Spurs hardly get penalties for these so called dives.
They do get yellow cards as well.

If the ref gave a penalty for that VAR would not overturn it. VAR will only overturn if there is absolutely no contact otherwise it is subjective and they will go with the ref's original decision.

they seemed to have wised up to the fact he initiates contact and falls down.

Twice in two games he's done that

Dele just needs to stop or get a better technique

Alli is Spurs' biggest diver for sure. Competition is hot for the 2nd place though with Kane, Son and Lamela.

A bit rich coming from Arsenal fans who brought diving o these shores.

Kane and Alli have developed a bit of a reputation for themselves unfortunately, even when they are genuinely fouled there will be occasions when they'll probably be booked. Only themselves to blame for that though.

Let's be honest, most debates about diving doesn't end up covering any of our clubs in glory - even centre halfs are at it these days.

posted on 2/9/19

Well, what a sheet show of an article. First of all Dele Alli was rugby tackled, a penalty all day long. Kane was shielding the ball, felt a shove in the back and went down looking for a penalty.... I've seen them given for a lot less. The Newcastle penalty was clear and blatant, but unfortunately a corrupt referee was in charge.

If this was Salah or Mane, penalties are given for sure, and all the Scouse loving pundits say how it was brilliant forward play to win a penalty.

"Kane was shielding the ball, felt a shove in the back and went down looking for a penalty.... I've seen them given for a lot less."

That is a very generous appraisal of what was clearly a premeditated dive.

Why can't fans just be honest?!

posted on 2/9/19

Kane slowed down and waited for the contact then he went down like a sack of shlt.

What annoys me is that he's in their box so we are in a relatively good position and by chucking himself to the deck he turns over possession and lets them off the hook.

It wasn't a dive but neither was it a penalty.Anyone thinking that was a dive needs their head tested and knows little about the game. However do agree Kane or perhaps English players don't do subtlety and finesse in this Arsenal tradition that well
As for Alli, a dive?? I rest my case about not knowing much about football seeing the OP is a Rugby Union fan
