Such a weird hill for an Arsenal fan to be dying on. It wasn't a foul, Niassie was going down before the contact even happened. If we had video technology/diving review technology those three players probably would have gotten more bans and they would have deserved them.

Why is it always "what about x" with football fans. I don't want to see diving in football and this is a good way to try and minimise it.

I mean, it’s not a foul, but he clearly isn’t going down before the contact happened. Weird way to look at it.

Eh it's pretty split second. Either way the contact from the defender doesn't cause him to fall like that.

It's a dive you mongs, why is anyone even arguing about it.

I guess you could call it a flop, not a dive, but either way it's simulation.

Yeah, this

That’s poo poo defense from a guy who has no hope of playing the ball.

Maybe if refs ever called pennos for contact where the offensive player doesn’t embellish then they’d stop embellishing. Just a thought.

Blatant dives get punished by referees during the game

These dives are the ones that con the refs, and get punished retrospectively

Why is this so hard to understand?

Can we agree that both should be punished? Niasse conned the referee and bought a penalty. It is absolutely correct that he should be punished for it. Referees should also be able to catch these incidents during the game, but when they don't having a back up plan is a good idea.

at the risk of continuing a pointless argument: there has to be a middle ground between a dive and a penalty. just because the ref bottled it doesn’t mean it was a dive.

I always wonder why footballers and manager do lovely little adverts like this

Like compared to how much money he's made in football versus what he must have gotten paid for this, it must be gently caress all, and at the cost of making him look like a total wanker
