Suarez is a 'proud' diver. He doesnt care... Smile

Really can't stand the man. He takes cheating to a whole other level.

Give me one example or video of cheating from Suarez in the derby. Just one.

by Lex Sun Oct 02, 2011 12:30 am

Perfectly fine during the fall, then as soon as he hits the ground, he goes for the knee/ankle/shin/foot

by Abramovich Sun Oct 02, 2011 12:33 am

He exaggerates everything, such a drama queen :queen:

by McAgger Sun Oct 02, 2011 12:38 am

We all know he play-acts all the time.....but there's always contact before he goes to ground. He doesn't dive without contact....Even in that gif Rodwell's knee hit his foot

by Lex Sun Oct 02, 2011 12:42 am

C'mon now, the contact was nowhere near brutal enough to invoke that reaction, which obviously influenced Atkinson's decision

Totally unnecessary

by McAgger Sun Oct 02, 2011 12:50 am

True, it was unnecessary to react like that with that sort 0f contact but nothing can be done about that......We can live with his play-acting as long as there is contact. At least he's not like Bisquit to clutch his face when hit on the shoulder or something.

by Albiceleste Sun Oct 02, 2011 1:01 am

Do you realize that jumping off of the ground off the ground to simulate getting tackled is a dive right? Okay just checking.

by julias Sun Oct 02, 2011 1:30 am

what an effing weasel

by StevieRayVaughan Sun Oct 02, 2011 6:55 am

Suarez is a diver/play-actor, so what? every team has someone like him anyway? We have Reyes, Real has Di maria, barca has alves, man-u has nani, Chelsea has drogba.

If you think about it, every team needs one of these. Their dives come handy sometimes Smile

by Nishankly Sun Oct 02, 2011 7:35 am

We have one of the best creative SS's in the world who would walk into any of your teams and i know most of you have wet dreams about him... Your defenders certainly do. Very Happy

by Art Morte Sun Oct 02, 2011 7:41 am

Suarez exaggerates fouls, no doubt about it.
But that's not nearly as bad as diving, i.e. falling down without contact.

Are you really saying he doesnt dive?

I'm sure the referee would have given a yellow card to Mascherano for knicking the back of his heel if he didn't jump in the air and act as if he'd been shot. Rolling Eyes

There was contact but once he got knicked he jumped in the air and acted as if he had been clattered by a two footed tackle, clear dive.

I certainly recommend anyone watch this video til the end, it's worth it :lol!:

by Adit Sun Oct 02, 2011 8:09 am

Suarez certainly is one of the elite divers out there.

by Harmonica Sun Oct 02, 2011 8:18 am

Frequency of Dives: 8.0

Luis Suarez is frequent with his dives. Sometimes he can even flop two or three times per game.

Diving Success Rate: 6.5

Low success rate for Suarez here because most of his dives are in opposing team's danger areas.

Degree of Difficulty: 9.6

Luis likes to go for the penalty.

Final Diving Score: 8.0+6.5*9.6 = 70.4

Suarez loses some points because of his low success rate.

Yes, but I'm not saying that all of his "foul-exaggerations" are justified.

But, to me, there's a clear difference between diving and exaggerating fouls. In the former you go to ground without any contact (eg. Di Maria). In the latter you exaggerate a contact that was there (eg. Suarez).

by Adit Sun Oct 02, 2011 9:16 am

Exaggerating contact and going down too easily is also considered as diving anyway.

by Gil Sun Oct 02, 2011 9:17 am

You just know he's diving when he does his signature hand raise thing.

Well yeah, in some cases, but often there's a clear difference, too.

But so far I haven't seen Suarez do anything in the Liverpool shirt that would have made me go "oh come on, man, don't do that...".

Obviously he's not the cleanest footballer around, but as I said, so far I haven't had a problem with him.

by Adit Sun Oct 02, 2011 9:21 am

Also in di marias case,9/10 of his dives are exaggerating contacts but its a dive nonetheless.
