Where were you guys just last week when there was no handball called here:



, and no penalty called here:



And besides lolling Refdrid fans, Juvdird fans and WebUnited fans, lol at Arsuefa fans. Last season you cheated perfectly good Messi goal in the first leg, and the miraculously escaped Van Persie red card first half in the second leg. And yet had to guts to call us cheats, after Van Persie again fked up. Well it all changed after I proved you all wrong.

I don't understand how VanDeez can say all this with such a straight face. Is he trying to justify that since Madrid has only 3-4 and Barcelona has 6, it makes Madrid better?

In my opinion, it does not matter that any team has fewer divers or that they do it only sometimes. If they do it even once, they are as bad as any other team out there. Heck, i have seen Zanetti roll around on the ground and then go on to play the next minute like nothing happened. I just don't see how any fan or any team can have the moral authority to criticize when a player milks a foul while condoning their own.

Conspiracy this conspiracy that remember match fixing only in seria a because it has been proven. You guys are some kind if hippies always looking for a conspiracy!!

and what goes around comes around. how many goddamn jiopsi scandal in la liga threads did we have to sit through last season.

every team has divers.

barca however are lucky enough to have at least 6

and if you look at who made the thread... not a madrid fan. its not just madrid fans who cant stand this stuff

Jiopsi scandals in la liga are just as retarded as this thread and you know it!

Why can't you stand it shut happens if Madrid won their games it would be a tie so no point of this conspiracy circle jerking because it makes people look like hippies!

this thread didnt start as a conspiracy thread. so no i dont think its as stupid as the scandal in la liga threads.

as for conspiracies i dont believe in such nonsense i just think barca have lots of divers and play acting and i think something should be done about it.

refs have no balls

lfp have no balls

first thing that needs to be done is refs need to start enforcing the diving/playacting = yellow rule. second thing that needs to be done is if the refs miss it, fine, everyone makes mistakes BUT then when it is replayed and reviewed after the match is over retroactive fines and bans should be put into play. (edit- oh and i mean this applies to all teams not just barca)

by this i mean, okay the games over we all saw cesc flop around reduce medels red to a yellow = no suspension, and give cesc a yellow.

concerning- do i think madrid is better for having fewer divers.. uh ya. name a top team that doesnt have a player who dives. now name a top team that has more than 6 excluding barca.

the thing is, i dont condone it. im totally against it. youre wrong if you think i want pepe and di maria on the team i support. ronaldo i can handle because like i said i think its blown out of proportion, though again, i admit he is a shithead but he is good enough for madrid.

Divenaldo, Dive Maria, Pepedive, DiveMarceloDive, Coindrive, Calledive... I could go on. Not only your team dives constantly, but Pepe and Ramos are the ugliest thugs in any team, who get their shit overlooked all the time.

just letting it be known i refuse to respond to anyone with a chuckling robert de nero avatar or anyone who era adjusts statistics.

Pretty soon they will invent 'touch football' - where there is no need to tackle, just touch the opponent and they have to stop, turn around and pass backwards 10 meters.

Another thing, I was reading that thread where people were making their greatest XI of all time and noticed Busquets coming up more than once. Firstly, it's ridiculous that he's even mentioned. But the point I really want to make is that you can't be in a greatest XI if you are diving, play acting scum.

And this goes for any other player who disrespects the laws of the game, including Fabregas.

If you have to resort to putting on a tactical soap opera to win each game, you will never be great. Your charade yields only hollow, undeserved, shameful victories.

Another really awful aspect of diving is that referees have pretty much accepted it as being part of the game.

Referees have to stop giving the fouled player the benefit of the doubt. This loophole cannot be allowed to be exploited any longer. It's time to move away from overzealous player protection, and move towards tough, honest, free-flowing football.

The fans, the players and the game deserve better.

I think you have never played this sport or have no clue how hard it is on the official to make these calls.

They don't get to see 100 replays in slow motion from every angle possible.

This is not the ref's fault, if players would stop doing it and again you people act like it's just Barca or Madrid or Spanish teams who do this.

For the record Italy won a world cup this way so I'm a bit tired of the Spain bashing.

Cesc's actions forced the ref into a call. Did he get it wrong probably but Medel did indeed do a stupid thing and no one knows if he was shouting like a mad man as well for the ref to hear.

It's the hardest sport on the planet to ref. It's they do the best job they can in most cases.

It's really easy to sit in your living room and act like these ref's are cheating the sport and mister internet tuff guy would do a better job out there.

You start off saying that I've never played football or refereed... and then you tell me that Italy dived their way to the World Cup. Actually, not only do I play, but I've refereed too.

I did not criticise the standard of refereeing at all in my comment. What I said was that the way in which diving is refereed needs to change. It's not an individual thing, it's systemic.

Meanwhile, your solution is "if players would stop doing it". Laughable.

What's more, not once did I mention Barca, Madrid or the Medel-Fabregas incident.

You've missed the my point and interpreted my comment as an attack against your club, leading to your embarrassing response.

Fabregas "There should have been a penelty given in the first half that didn't"

The balls on this man

What is it about La Liga that makes players' faces so sensitive?

Seriously, don't compare this to non given penalties and handballs, because these play actings (Fagregas and Busquets especially) are on a WHOLE ANOTHER LEVEL. Referee mistakes happen (quite frequently in La Liga), but this is disgraceful.

the point isn't the hanball being a yellow or red... it's a foul. the play should have been stopped and the ball given to Sevilla.

the red was the disgraceful one though. the ref didn't call it... his back was turned. one of the sideline refs called it.

barca players are trained like this lol. even barca b does his bs. complete disgrace of a club for allowing this.

CR7 was like this until Mou returned. mou told him to shut it. even di maria got benched last year by mou for excessive diving. to dive to avoid a hard tackle... i get that. that's normal. for example, iniesta does that. but the pother types are ridiculous.

sanchez is the the worst of them btw. it's so bad that even La Liga refs ignore him now lol.

What also is hilarious that Lahoz is actually known Refdrid, last season he gave Real 4 penalties and 3 reds for opposition, in two games. I shit you not.

dude... referee mistakes, i actually don't get too worked up about most times. shat happens. but when players playact to invent things (Barca academy offers programs from grade school to doctorates at this), then it 's freakin disgraceful.

i would post illustrating video... but we all know what happened when i did this last time.

There wasn't any inventing going on, only inventing is done by who ever invented this thread. The intention is clear, the contact is clear. It's a red all day long.

Dude what is it with you? In one thread you say that Madrid robbed La Liga last season and in another you say that they get screwed week in week out...

And Mou admitted to him being his favorite referee

lets be honest here

even if the ref literaly scored a goal by himself on behalf of farca you would still defend him

they both went to each other
the only difference is one of them made a deal out of it and ref took advantage of it to help farca
once again by reducing their opponent's players by 1 guess when?
ill tell you, when sevilla was leading the score and in the last quarter of the game

nothing new here old, beloved farca

Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa Waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaa :S

Somebody else is using jibers account every now and then.

Can't defend him this time.

Acted like a huge c*nt.

well he had the DNA of a *bleep* since long ago

Lahoz is Mourinho's fav. ref. due to obvious reasons. Hypocrite Madrid fans are hypocrite.

Lahoz should've also given Cesc a yellow card for what he did, but Medel called the red card upon himself. Should've been smart and walked away. Nothing wrong with the red card.

Just because he is according to Mourinho "The best Referee in the country" (something I agree with actually) doesn't mean he didn't have a fcking horrible game.

It says a lot that a Barca match can make even the best referees look like drunkards. FC Barcelona a club who's legacy will always be tainted with poor refereeing, whenever a tough game comes along controversial calls are never far away. It happens too many time to be a coincidence.

surprise surprise, happened against Osasuna and now against Sevilla

The similarities between those games??? Barca were losing both until the red cards

Also when did Mou call Lahoz his best referee?? Mou doesn't have favourite referee because they all hate him

Also Cesc picking up the theatrics to fit in, seems this guy would do anything to stay in the line-up, Suarez should come to Barca, their team will then be complete

yeah. Amazing how Barca fans like to justify things... but not that suprising really. Almost everyone at that club from administration, players, fans, legends, etc behave like this. Even the region, who is the most productive in Spain but also the most indebted by far, likes to deceive itself. but i digress. all you need to know is that Cruyff is their vocal representative amongst legends lol.

How can Barca fans be so biased saying that the red was totally deserved. Jesus. Surprisingly noone else thinks that.

The good thing is, referee's are more attentive of these dives in Clasicos these days(what i have noticed). Stopped the car thief, hasn't stopped Alexis yet tho, soon hopefully he will realise he will never get a penalty and he will try to stay on his feets
