I thought he was in genuine stress, that he had maybe hit his head on the floor, to be shaking about on the floor like he did was low and pathetic, hence he is a Clown.

Both men running at speed into mid-air at each other and he "hardly touches him"? That's literally impossible, and Russ hasn't said anything of the sort. Only you've made such a ridiculous assessment.

Either you have an incredible pain threshold compared to normal human beings, you haven't actually watched the incident or you're talking absolute nonsense.

If Evans never touched him then the is no way he would have span backwards unless he actually connected otherwise he would have continued forwards.

You can see the impact and him turning before any impact from Drogba as it was Evans own kick that causes his own spin.

On a much, much, much brighter note. Liverpool 1 - 2 Birmingham City, what a goal from Jerome!

Not only did Evans touch Drogba, he straightened his leg to maximise the damage as contact was made.

I see too much of a pause between studs-on-chest and Dogbreath's dramatic pose. The man knows how to dive.

Well I watched the game (as I have already said) and saw your Gif. I did question if it was wise responding to a post from you, you can't seem to post without personal insults. Wont make this mistake again.

Not that he didn't touch him, that it isn't close to being as bad as he portrayed, he definitely makes contact, and there was more intent behind it. He questioned why I called him a Clown, if people don't think that type of behavior is low quality, so be it, I do.

That's very convenient.

I haven't made a single personal insult. Your assessment is ridiculous and you're possibly talking absolute nonsense. If you consider that personally insulting, i'm amazed you're a football fan and internet forum user. I'm also amazed you have the nerve to talk about insult when you've repeatedly called Drogba a clown.

Just because Drogba may have dived or exaggerated for effect doesn't mean Evans hardly touched him. To claim as such is exaggeration and deceit, ironically similar to the clown himself.

I didn't question why you called him a clown at all, i've specifically agreed he's a clown in fact. I've not implied anywhere that such behaviour isn't low quality either. Am i allowed to say what i think of your assessment of my posts to you?

A clear dive by N'gog! Will he get the Eduardo treatment?

Yes he should, and imo the ref should be fined. What use is it to tell people to respect the referees when he doesn't spot something as obvious as that? Referees need some form of action taken against them so fans know that the FA is actually doing something to get them to sort themselves out.

that was quite possibly the most blatant dive i have ever seen , thats saying something after watching Ronaldo all those years :)

Well they were lucky with the penalty saved a point. Still dropped two more though, at home, to Birmingham.

11 points off the top already, must suck to be a Liverpool fan.

William Hills are offering even money that N'gog will win Olympic diving Gold for France at the London Olympics. ;)

Did the clown force the thug's right boot into his chest? Otherwise, why are you ranting about the clown instead of focusing on the real issue?
Because YOU are discussing the foul, not me. My Clown comment was based on him faking a seizure on the floor, you are questioning me calling him a Clown in the way you phrased it. I passed judgment on the foul calling it Garbage, my comment was based on his reaction, not the challenge. Why join in on the foul? You all have it in hand, not much point in me saying "I Agree".

And I am now deceitful for thinking that faking a seizure on a pitch is low grade.

Course you are, and I can have an opinion on a challenge, it didn't hurt him to the extent he portrayed, he's a grown man, and his reaction proved it. To be in the amount of pain that rendered that reaction, he would have had serious damage, not up and tunning 2 mins later.

You don't see that as a slightly confrontational response? Perhaps, if people post things you don't agree with, you should ask why they think that, not take it as some personal challenge against your Opinion.

What is? That I don't care for the way you word some of your posts? Every time we cross words it ends up like this, so it's either me or you, this doesn't happen with me and anyone else, however, I can't vouch as to does this happen with you and other users.

Maybe we should steer clear from now on.

I phrased it to question why you seemed more irked by the reaction to the hack than the hack and hadn't condemned your own player with equal enthusiasm.

Quote:

Faking a seizure doesn't mean Evans hardly touched him or that the only foul made was merely intent. That's one extreme to the other.

I agree. And the challenge from Evans was still absurd and totally uncalled for.

Slightly confrontational, yes. Personally insulting, not even close.

It's not a challenge against my opinion, that i don't mind at all. It's a challenge against the laws of physics, hence my reaction of "ridiculous".

As far as i'm aware, this is only the second occasion this bickering has ensued. There's no need to steer clear, there's no deliberate insulting etc going on, that's just the way it is and if you can't argue with Man United fans, then what's the point?

In all seriousness though, if you honestly take issue with my wording, then i'll gladly amend it.
