bias mode on:
Ronaldo's "dive" always got contact. Maybe he's the kind of player who easily falls down |

droga and ronaldo share the spoilt.
considering his big ang muscular size, i just can't believe drogba goes down easily. even rafa benitez has compiled his 'diving' videos...... |

Voted for Ronaldo. I saw a few compilation of him diving, so I'm sticking my point. Yeah, I knows some of you will be whining saying he dived to avoid contact, but what i felt disgrace was when he goes around the ref to appeal. Ronaldo could the a very very good player but really have to clean up his act. This season however have been an improvement. Don't see him dived that often anymore. But still hope he could sweep out & throw that diving habit of his.
Anyway, 2nd price goes to Drogba & 3rd would be Robben |

To my recollection, Stevie G went down under NO contact in a friendly against one of the Balkan countries was it? This was pre-World Cup. Most of the time he does go down under minimal contact. So what constitutes diving now? Going down under minimal contact, no contact at all, or both?

That's a good point Duke. This is an issue that we should discuss on. Minimal or No contact at all that is the question. No contact definitely should be branded as diving. Minimal contact, depends on situation. If players are running as fast as Theo Walcott is, minimal contact is all that is needed to bring a player down.

Falling down when there's no contact is definitely a dive, I don't think anyone could argue otherwise. It's the minimal contact that's the subjective one and will always be contested precisely because it's subjective.

Drogba won it this season, no competition at all. His dive/overreact is still the same...everytime act like some truck bang into him, just to see him running few minutes later.
Stevie still does it but at least Stevie didnt go appeal for every foul he didnt get. |
