Career ending tackle. A disgraceful challenge. One of the worst you will ever see and how on earth anybody is defending that I do not know. Steaming in, two footed and airborne - how can that not be a straight red ? This is no Man U bias just common sense. "One of the worst you will ever see"Now that is one of the worst comments about football you will ever see! It was a bad tackle, but you'll see a few like that every season. He dives in two footed, from the side. It's never going to end a career. A yellow would have been harsh true, but it was just a normal red.

Gerrard's sending off was a red all day long, but the penalty was very very soft. All in all it was a fair result in terms of reflecting the team's performances. Liverpool are playing with a bit more heart but still technically lacking and giving the ball away cheaply even when under minimal pressure. They asked no real questions of United.

Junior how can you defend Berbatov's cheating today, but then complain when any Arsenal players dive?? same goes for you baldy, both of you get rid of your Man Utd bias, and accept that all of them are at it these days! That's the truth of it. You'll never get fans to accept that though. Baldy will tell you that every other team is full of divers (Arsenal especially) but no one at Man Utd dives.

I have to be honest and say that while I accept some have gone down a little too easily I don't think you see Man U players doing the little donkey kicks and triple forward rolls like RVP against Birmingham. I'm sure you will dig deep to prove me wrong sihath but if you do stick up RVP's alongside so I can be proved right .

It'll be like a big weight being lifted. Every team has players that dive. Not players that go down a little too easily. You are making excuses for them. They dive. Cheat. RVP was a pathetic dive. I'm sure you would have to dig very deeply at all to find something similar from plenty of players.

List the occasions when you consider Manchester United players have dived.

No sihath, the bald bigot. I just wanted to see whether his fingers would allow himself to write anything or whether his keyboard would spontaneous explode.

Because he plays the game virtually on tip toe, like a ballet dancer, he's very easy to knock off the ball. Balance is an issue with him but since he's improved his upper body strength he seems to ride the tackles a lot better. might at one time have had the thought to go over a little too easily but I think he's cleaned that up. Good player and doing very well this season.

Good player and doing very well this season. If he keeps up the kind of form he's in at the moment for the whole of the season then he could be in with a shout for player of the season. But his attitude on the pitch and behaviour towards officials makes him seem like one of the most unpleasant people in football. Not as horrible as Diouf but he runs him close.

He's got a good disciplinary record.
