Bale's diving and play acting is getting more out of hand as the weeks go by. Bardsley was nowhere near him there and he hits the decks and rolls around like he's been shot.

If Scott Parker wasn't English, he'd be getting twice as much criticism and cards as he is.

Yep. Ref didn't look like he was going to give anything, but the lino flagged so the free kick was given. The last few Spurs games I've seen have all featured some kind of play-acting or simulation from Bale. It's a shame he stoops to it.

bahaha his explanation for all the diving accusations was that he didnt want to take tackles full on and get a serious injury instead he'd "duck" the tackle and in our terms "flop" or "dive" and prevent him self getting hurt. called him self a ducker not a diver LMAO

Lol, seriously? I remember when football was an actual man's game. They showed a compilation from the early/mid 90s on Goals on Sunday a couple of weeks ago of players taking full-blooded tackles and getting straight to their feet. It's amazing that fifteen years later the same tackles (or even softer ones) apparently inflict mortal wounds.

Half Rooney's goals this season must have come from penalties

lord have mercy mario balotelli stamped song's knee, should have been a straight red but not even called a freekick. Then again it is arsenal, least respected EPL club by referees

HOw is Balotelli still on the pitch, that's three studs-up challenges, he should have been sent off twice already.

arsenal fullbacks keep playing it into the box, it's so obvious now , fake the cross and continue have to throw a variety at the defenders keep them honest
