    I've seen him eat grass from negligible contact many a time.

    Not saying he doesn't go down. As much as I loathe it that is the modern game. But to lump him in with Ronaldo on this issue is a bit much for me.

    Argentina were the masters of their own downfall yet again, with cynical challenges flying in, giving away 2 unnecessary penalties and the keeper mekkin an howler all contributed along with some poor players and poor tactics from a clown of a manager to their elimination. France who were there for the taking ended up walking into the next round. Messi for his part was the only glimmer of hope and crowding him out worked for the most part for the opposition but his team mates couldn`t do anything with the extra space.

    Otamendi been great in Prem looked like he just wanted to tw@t sumbody at any given opportunity and was defensively poor Di Maria took 4 games to beat a man and look owt like a player and thank God Mascherano has jacked in now he is one of the dirtiest players have ever seen.

    The rolling about the turf is certainly not true if Messi, he’s well known for been a player that doesn’t dive

    Absolute turf muncher. Tiniest contact and he's chewing the grass like most of his counterparts these days.

    Seems the modern era has many things confused. Contact doesn't mean a foul. Hand hitting ball isn't hand ball.

    The word "intent" seems to have been removed from modern interpretation of laws.
