can find one for any famous player
cool


doesn't matter if other people are doing it
he has a choice to cheat or not to cheat
posting a video and saying "but another famous player does it" is just generic teenage blame game tactics

No, I'm simply pointing out that everyone who is famous and has a lot of games, has dived at some points in their career.
So what?

i mean, i don't care about players 'diving' if there was really a foul. he got fouled and he wanted to make sure the referee saw it, so he made it as dramatic as possible. good on him.

sad about france 2-1 australia, i wish tim cahill or james meredith would have been given a chance off the bench. they did hold their own quite well considering the quality in france's side.

argentina 1-1 iceland right now. very surprising, mascherano has been so critical in his passing, they have all seemed to work out so well. i can definitely see argentina winning this with hopefully a goal from di maria

argentina is shit atm
ummm, they are only lacking in the striking option, having the one up front is very risky and messi hasn't come down enough to augment aguero and allow for more options, so he hasn't been able to be so clinical with his chances.

their passing has been top quality as well as their ability to hold possession.

argentina hasn't scored a goal without messi assist or messi scoring himself in 2 years
they're a mess

that's mainly because they have 1 up front with messi sitting behind him, so that creates easy opportunities for messi to hit a through ball to aguero when he's got room, and if he hasn't, he'll push up himself and give it a go.

what else would you expect?

argentina not to be complete garbage, with a garbage team, except their offense

yes, but ronaldo continues to do so
Name any footballer that attacks the box and they'll dive.
Sterling and Alli from England.
Neymar from Brazil.
Robben from the Netherlands.
The point you're making doesn't stand as diving is now commonplace in world football

ok, completely ignore my perfectly valid point and then make a statement yourself that makes barely any sense

good debate friend
