    It's doubly funny because they'll call it a good tackle when it's blatantly not

    Thats what happens when your an English player though.

    3 players fouled Fabregas and the idiot stayed on his feet.

    Each nationalities tv coverage is like that in fairness, certainly not unique to England

    Anything other than 3 points for Chelsea and the title is Utd's.

    Going down when you've been fouled isn't diving, staying on your feet with 3 players close by as you're getting fouled is daft unless some day referees can recognise it.

    If the tackle isn't enough to make him go down, then by definition, it is diving.

    The usual there, 3 fouls and then something worth a yellow on its own and the other 3 stop counting.

    As with most big games these days, the result is of far more interest than the game itself. Pretty tame stuff so far.

    Describing it as being tame is being very generous.
    Its utter cack ,1 shot on target in 40 minutes.
    2 bad teams.

    Most professional footballers dive now. It's a necessary part of the game unfortunately.

    They're not bad teams at all. Its just the top teams seem to approach these games with fear these days, they're afraid to lose it seems.

    Look at how Arsenal's last attack broke down, Fabregas clipped twice, stayed up but had been impeded, referee didn't give it and Chelsea break. I hated diving when there's been no foul but referees can't be relied on.

    Starting to hope Cesc goes in the summer, he's had injuries but he's missing something the last while.
