Having watched the slo-mo replay, it was a bit agonizing. Lloris thinks "That's going in. Shall I dive and look like a numpty? Or Just stand here and hope noone notices me? OK I'll stand here and watch it go by."

Neville demonstrated on Carragher why Kane might have been justified in his reaction, on MNF. Neville reckoned Doucoure didn't just push Kane in the face but dug his fingers into Kane's eyes. He spoke about it like it was a common tactic.

The truth is probably somewhere closer to Kane milking it, but it was a stupid thing for Doucoure to do given Everton's precarious situation.

Oh dear. Thats one step further than Crouch yanking a defender's ponytail as the ball comes in.sionascaig wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2023 3:29 pmA friend used to play for a Hibs youth team. They were taught to stick a thumb up the opponents rear end when a corner came in. Apparently very good at deflating the jump.

Surprised to see Harry Kane finally get some stick for his diving habits, the bias from commentators and pundits was unreal at times (from a neutral POV)
Not really a fan, world-class ability but bottling mentality
Now at 30 should just go to somewhere like Bayern where he's guaranteed a few trophies, before hanging up his boots

Ex pro's defending it's saying it's a black art etc it's blatant cheating, he was getting a red card anyway so no need to go down to try to con the referee to make it look worse.Kai wrote: ↑Tue Apr 04, 2023 5:17 pmSurprised to see Harry Kane finally get some stick for his diving habits, the bias from commentators and pundits was unreal at times (from a neutral POV)

Grealish is the worst out the lot, fantastic player but spends to much time going down to easy.

Massive goal for Brighton, no-ones really talking about them but they got 2 games in hand on Spurs, right in the mix for a top 4 finish.
