English players don't dive.Why didn't he get a yellow?
There's rumor that there was a cracking dive watch produced by Harry Kane before this edition. Have you seen one? Does the watch have a classic or modern look?Thought that was a cracking dive personally... had me fooled on first viewing.
Well played.Wait, this isn't the Daniel James performance thread?
Those Daniel James' are not a true dive watch. They were wrongly labeled as 100m waterproof by those stupid testers.Wait, this isn't the Daniel James performance thread?
Any clip on this? Never seen this Alli's watch before. He had some cracking last year editions though.Alli did one as well late on that was excused with "losing his balance".
Commentators will go above and beyond to excuse English players doing it.
He didn't get booked. I thought "simulation" was an automatic booking? Guess not.I mentioned this Kane dive in another thread. He’s a pro at throwing his leg or body in front of a defender at full tilt and then getting bundled over.
Don’t think he got booked for this dive though did he?
At least the pundits at the bottom of page said he was looking for it. Jose hit the nail on the head saying you’re never sure these days with VAR, I also think Kane knows this and plays on it, it wasn’t a no contact dive, he does his stupid get in from of a player and stop so there is contact dive. I could see it given sometimes.https://www.skysports.com/football/...W1GBn1L9S-EZgKftcWGddfTY6VtfVw67jS3gelpaIZqZE
Close the thread lads, we've misjudged him, he didn't dive.
Think he gave Arsenal a free kick for handball rather than simulation.He didn't get booked. I thought "simulation" was an automatic booking? Guess not.
Bad attempt at sarcasm but Where did you get that pearl of wisdom? Gerrard was a master at this art, as was Ashley Young to name but two. Plenty of others as well.English players don't dive.
He didn’t just look for it, he manufactured it. He jumps in the way and kicks his own legs backwards to make the contact.Deles was worse IMO, there was contact for Kane's, even if he did look for it.
Yeah I was pretty cringe when the reply came up yesterday.He didn’t just look for it, he manufactured it. He jumps in the way and kicks his own legs backwards to make the contact.
Let them sort VAR out before confusing them more with something else.Should be a yellow. Rules need changing.
Interpretation of rules are surely one of the biggest issues with it.Let them sort VAR out before confusing them more with something else.

He should have sworn on his daughter's life again!https://www.skysports.com/football/...W1GBn1L9S-EZgKftcWGddfTY6VtfVw67jS3gelpaIZqZE

I don't believe him since he didn't swear on his daughter.https://www.skysports.com/football/...W1GBn1L9S-EZgKftcWGddfTY6VtfVw67jS3gelpaIZqZE

Gerrard diving? No way. Wasn't he the one who complained about foreign players diving and that Liverpool players would never do such a thing, and he would have a go at them if ever they did that. That of course was prior to the CL final against Milan.Bad attempt at sarcasm but Where did you get that pearl of wisdom? Gerrard was a master at this art, as was Ashley Young to name but two. Plenty of others as well.
He even looks like Tom Daley!Wait, this isn't the Daniel James performance thread?
You will never solve it, it’s part of the game, and quite frankly I enjoy the debate around it. I do wish Kane and Dele would cut it out but gamesmanship, diving and “professional fouls” are part of the games.Interpretation of rules are surely one of the biggest issues with it.
The two bookings he's got weren't even dives!He even looks like Tom Daley!
All those things are crap and lead to less quality football in my opinion. Especially professional fouls.You will never solve it, it’s part of the game, and quite frankly I enjoy the debate around it.
