[abojodeh]

the worst diver in the universe is David Villa
i have seen him allot of times get yellowed for a dive or even get a red/sent off (2 yellows), he dives very badly and even tho he argues the ref !! what an idiot he is

and Maurinho should shut up as he have the world greatest divers in his team Zlatan/Quaresma hint hint, and also he missed to mention Gerrard David Villa and David Silva

so maurinho Sshhhh

did he really say that......

yes he is right the four of them dive,but by far the worst is Drogba....opposite players only have to blow on him and he hits the deck like he's been poleaxed.

Ronaldo seems to have lost that ability to fling himself to the ground now...i love to watch him with the ball..but he was losing respect for his naughtyness.glad to see him using his skills for what he's good at.not diving...

i dont think torres dives,well not that much but van persie..definate diver. you'd swear the emirates was a skating rink rather than a footie pitch the way that guy falls over..

I'm a bit shocked that Mourinho has said that about Drogba, considering their supposedly close relationship.

But tbh, I find that a bit rich considering his Porto team were some of the Worlds worst for diving and/or feigning injury.

I don't see Inter much either, but I would think they would be interested in diving a bit on top of that.

I think my old friend Moaninho should start to read this forum better. Already this summer I posted a link about worst diver. I remember some Swedish footy journalists were discussing about this and a few comments was a bit surprining for me.
I remember they said Jesus Navas of Sevilla was the worst diver but Ronaldo, Drogba and the others were not far behind.

The worst and most hypocritical diver in world football is that inbred scouse thief, Steven Gerrard.

He falls over, flicks out his leg so it makes contact with the defender's leg.

The inbred has no shame.

 

[piazza]

Gerrard is terrible, though I think Drogba is the worst. Ronaldo doesn't so much dive, as he moans and embellishes a lot. Ronny does have contact made against him quite frequently, but there's no need for the pained looks, and constant whinging.

 

[RichardsReds]

Surely you all mean who is the best diver, or who dives the most.

not who is the worst diver. the worst divers never get away with it!

 

[christianoharleiro]

i dont think torres dives,well not that much

nah, he does dive alot, was apparently one of the most fouled players in europe at some point.

Mourinho says it like it is, all 4 of those do dive alot. but then so does Ibrahimovic and Quaresma.

 

[Sporting4Ever]

Diving is like pot...

Everybody's done it at least once...

As for feigning injury, i'm sad to say that that happens alot in Portugal, mostly the little teams buying time against the bigger ones, but it's a big part of why our league is so much poorer than the others. And the worse thing is i don't see it beeing discouraged by fans, coaches or league regulators.

Drogba vs Lehmann was easily THE most pathetic and hillarious thing I have ever witnessed in football.

Bother 6'2" or more and crumbling to the ground like they'd been hit by a bus.

Pathetic, but I LMAO.

rfr...that was funny..sooooooo funny,two grown men acting worse than little children in the playground..

 

[ayrton-senna3]

I think Arjen Robben is the worst diver ever and some players from South America.

 

[Red_Devil28]

lol i'd have to say that gerrard and drogba and also torres are worst divers i've seen!! did anyone else notice the amount of turf time torres picked up durin the Euros in the summer?

 

[RyanGiggs]

I remember when Rafa called Drogba a diver, Mourinho didn't say he agreed. Why now?

If the reports are indeed true that he is contemplating to return to EPL and knowing there is probably no way back for him at Stamford Bridge after an unceremonious departure, why not play the good, conscientious guy to make himself more honest and lovable to other top clubs?

I am just guessing. Your guess is as good as mine.

maybe he is coming out with all of this because he can...he wanted Drogba to leave Chelsea and go to Italy with him..Drogba didn't so maybe Mourinho is just shooting his mouth off to keep the English clubs interested..or to just stir things up a bit....he is soooooooo good at that..

 

[Guest]

He's only stating the obvious really. Ronaldo is still the worst diver in the league though.

 

[Nemanjaaa]

Tbf what he's saying is true cannot deny that none of the above mentioned dive. I agree Torres dives as well, prehpas he's not mentioning him as he will put a bid in for him next summer who knows ?
