It seemed that every time we attacked putting a bit of pressure on their defence an opposition player went down for just enough time to frustrate and break up our forward play. Surely we must keep focus during these delays as we slip into neutral, it happened so often today Maddison was taking the piss with his fake antics.

It's called game management.

Maddison dives even more than Zaha. Luckily the referee was wise to his playacting last season but Dean fell for it every time.

Clearly talented players that do this really grind my gears.

You would think their relevant manager would tell them to stop doing it but clearly this is all now part of a game.

The media’s current darling yet they never seem to mention this side of his game

His quote after the home game last season

“Apologies to everyone for what happened today," he wrote. Nobody wants to see diving in our beautiful game.”

Not changed much has he....hypocrite
