I rather think anyone hit in that way would go down like a bag of do doo, but being him it cause automatic disbelief.
Indeed.

Drogba is a diver, a clown, whatever, we all know that. But that's irrelevant. This was a blatant, calculated attack by Evans. No player deserves that, even Drogba. And for all Drogba is i don't recall him ever making a violent or bad challenge like this on another player.

Of course there's a slight pause, like any player's reaction. Watch it real time; http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=pXpPZ1RsP3Y

Why is it Drogba this, Drogba that? Watch Evans instead of obsessing with Drogba's reaction. He's a disgrace.

The most disgusting thing about this is the distinct lack of reaction from the British press. Had this been the other way round, i'd bet my right arm this would top news for weeks on end. As it is, not only is Evans given a pass by the press, but the FA probably won't do anything either.
