On the Neymar business, how do they not understand that the cameras are scrutinising everything close up, and that you are going to be shown up for the screaming Jessup that you are? If that was me I`d be too embarrassed to show my face.

I absolutely can't stand Neymar and his diving antics but my problem is all the media and everyone will coat him off but if Alli, Sterling or another dives to win us a penalty or red card tonight, will we be up all in arms.

There is a difference between diving to gain an advantage and diving for the same outcome but rolling around screaming like you have been shot.

We'd probably react in the same way the Brazilian media currently are to Neymar's antics...

Yep (well I will) it's the thing that has diminished my love for the game more than anything else in recent years, incessant cheating and it being deemed acceptable or worse, clever play ffs. Football used to be a man's game, someone runs their studs down your thigh? you'd fake that it didn't hurt not roll about crying. It's :thdn:
