Been booked more times for diving than any other player in the league this season.
Surprise surprise. [emoji2]
They said earlier on Sky Sports that it was over the last three seasons. Fabulous record: Both Zaha and Palace must be really proud.

Yes, but I reckon it'll be years before a referee gives anyone a second yellow for diving - I don't think they've got the balls.

He was, but ironically the one that wasn't a dive he got booked for, happy days. :lolol:

When you get a reputation for diving, as he has earned himself, the ref will get it wrong. He'll have more doubt when you go down and you won't get all the fouls you should. And every once in a while, you'll also get booked wrongly. Tough luck. Stop diving, and eventually, when the refs realise you've cleaned up your act, you'll start getting more of the fouls you should, won't get wrongly booked as often.

Unfortunately, until that happens (yeah, like it'll happen any time soon) it will give Palace fans and Zaha something to hang their hats on. Today's booking "He didn't deserve it! The ref got it wrong, look at the replays! He's not a diver" and they will continue to ignore the ones that are actual dives, or "what about izquierdo that time" "murray does it too! (he used to do it for us!)" and so on.
