You watch a golfer call a penalty on himself and he is the only person on the planet that knows what happened, in football you kick a ball out of play and put your hand up and shout our throw, awful.

I know this is part of the modern game, and we may have been guilty of it a few times this season, but it does my nut in that they're never called out on it but instead they're almost lionised. Hope they fade away very quickly. You know that fans of every single club say exactly the same about Grealish and most of our team? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The fact that other fans hate him is a good sign. Good players tends to be hated because of jealousy and also a fear for the player. If he wasn't any good and dived every now and then no one would give a crap. Most other fans hated Henry too. I remember it very well.

I remember it very well. Cristiano Ronaldo is a similar example too. I find with Jack it’s the fans of clubs that are performing at a similar level (or our local rivals) that hate him. It’s basically jealousy. Fans of all the ‘top’ clubs seem to love him. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd stated that we've done it, however commentators often speak about this during games, McManaman did during the Burnley game as an example. When Leeds do it it's completely ignored, when in my opinion they do it far more frequently. Edited February 1, 2021 by Jonesy7211 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MarkLillis Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 (edited) What Jack does is fully part of the game now. There is a most fouled table and it is common knowledge that Jack is always top of it. There a reason for this table in my opinion and that is the majority of football opinion realizes that "winning a foul" is now a crucial skill and staying on the feet is sometimes not desirable because refs wont give you the fouled you deserve. All clubs have players that try to do this. They just wish that their players were as good at it as Jack is Wanting players to stay on their feet when they have been fouled is both naïve and outdated.

No, you lot defend the indefensible, yes every team has players that will buy a soft free kick I hate it but that’s part of the game but you refuse to even acknowledge that grealish is the absolute worst for it. The lack of self awareness when it comes to defending him is baffling 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Free kick Aston villa, thank you Mr Clogger of a defender Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
villa4europe Posted February 1, 2021 Share Posted February 1, 2021 And the "went down holding the wrong leg" stuff vs West ham Yes it's a bit daft but the west ham player booted him across his other leg a second after the ball had gone! If he doesn't go down he doesn't get a free kick for a blatant foul, as we saw later in that game when the ref robbed us of an equaliser Its not like there's not a foul in there What you see now is stuff like the livermore tackle, shin high studs up nowhere near the ball but Leeds, West ham, wolves baggies and blues fans "greasy is on the floor again" of he course he **** is! Same for England, got taken out cynically in the first minute "would be a great player if he stayed on his feet" 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
