[kj] Hated footy players past n present

[Rob Horan]

His interview is the catalyst for a general footy supporter clamour for the FA to try and sort the shitty exploits that go on the pitch from all sides. You, as a supporter of Chelsea, must understand that it's inevitable that every other team and their support will have a go at the top side....so I'm pretty sure his English isn't to blame - he obviously struggles to stay on his feet whatever happens (or not)! He's a step up from Heskey but not the world class striker they paid for (and the £24M ain't his fault but it's pressured him into believing he's world class). He was clapped off on Saturday but he did score 2. Shame Crespo isn't starting more but hardly worth building a side around someone who's not around long term.....

What makes you say that?
He stated that he did nt dive after he said he did. His English let him 
down. he got confused with "going down after being fouled" and "diving". Its 
plain to see that he was struggling to speak in English.
   The goal went in off his hand, he admitted it. Quite similar to Robbie 
keanes goal a few weeks ago, dont you think? Maybe you forgot it because no 
one mentioned it .What do you expect him to do? Ask the Ref to disallow the 
goal and asked to be booked? The Man U goalkeeper last year, why did nt he 
tell the Ref that the ball crossed the line (Against Spurs)? Or is it one 
rule for chelsea and another rule for everyone else?
    I'm patiently waiting for all the other teams that have surrounded the 
Ref last week-end to get charged...........................I wonder whats 
stopping the FA from acting?
    Yes some Chelsea fans were booing him on Saturday, but the majority were 
clapping him off.
He's a bit of a drama queen, but thats the  French influence on him.
