Re: liverpool v man city
There should be 2 terms for diving.
Dive: what the man city players did
Suarez dive: normal dive + antics + bitching & moaning
Biggest game of the year and he served up that rubbish.
Dzeko would have won a penalty if he went down earlier, dunno wtf Sakho was thinking

Re: liverpool v man city
Potentially classic game ruined by play acting and playing the ref on both sides. As long as people make excuses for it when their own team profits it will get worse and destroy the main perceived advantage EPL has over other comps. Can't keep up the interest when players continually take the p!ss, people have their self respect.
Ironically the same ref that gives Liverpool 3 (yes 3) penalties against manure denies city 3 clear cut spot kicks
Sakho lunges in gets none of the ball and takes Dzeko down, if Dzeko doesn’t over react it was clear as day. Skrtel wrestles half the city team at a corner, not even looking at the ball, grabs on at least 2 shirts. Skrtel ‘s hand of god.
Should have had 3 sent off too, Henderson unlucky but correct decision. Skrtel 2 penalties, 2 yellows off. Suarez, take your pick. 4 or 5 yellows going his way in a just world. Maybe he should lend the ref one his own invisible cards.

End of, it was a HUGE game for both teams and I think nerves got the better of a lot of people out there (including the ref at times), but what a cracking game.
Suarez should have been booked for his pathetic attempt in the second half which would have meant red, but hey lets not let the facts get in the way.
I say all his with absolutely no vested interest in the result other than I hope Liverpool end up winning it this year and I mean that, but gees some of you guys cant see the forest for the trees.
I also hope Liverpool win it and you can see what it would mean to Stevie G already. Bomber's borrowed some of those red-tinted glasses from the AU crowd
Suarez is actually very clever, he chooses when and where he want the free kick more or less. For Sterling's goal he showed how strong he is, no benefit in getting a free way out there, so he just bounced Clichy off of him, then later, the slightest touch by someone when he thinks a free is a benefit and he's flying through the air.

Saw that, thought I'd bite and ask him why the proportion of Napoli fans grew as the Milan and Juve ones fell way a few years ago but thought better of if.

I hate when skrtel wrestles and pulls shirts however kompany wasn't completely innocent. Watch the replays and you'll see most times he had skrtel's shirt as much as skrtel had his shirt.
Suarez overreacted a couple of times however Demichelis fouled Suarez in the second half. It looked like a Suarez dive but you could clearly see the contact on Suarez.
If man city could have had '3' penalties then Liverpool could have possibly had one. Suarez takes on kompany and goes to ground very easily however kompany wasn't really playing the ball. Game over anyways. Great win!

Soldado, Mirallas, Lampard, David Silva, Walcott, Barkley, Ozil, Nasri, Cazorla, Podolski, Ba, Janujaz, Ben Arfa, Mata, Arteta, Valencia, Cisse, Lennon, Wilshere, Kagawa all have less league goals this season than Martin Skrtel (7), own goals not included .
This is hilarious.
