Kasper the truth is that Cristiano Ronaldo's fans, well most of them will not accept anything said about him in the negative. I have said before that he is so talented but a talented player should not have to resort to relying on those types of tactics rather than his skill to gain an advantage. He does, whether people like it or not go to ground more often and easier than other players. Lots of players dive but it's because it has become an acceptable part of the game treated with little concern by most officials. As for the second clip, the keeper, Schwarzer is entitled to challenge for the ball. Everyone is onto it and if he doesn't want to adjust his game or his tactics then the reputation he gets is of his own making.
And yeah you have to admit Drogba is another one and over exaggerates the situation.

I can think of one equally talented player who is a MAJOR diver in CHELSEA as a matter of fact (cough, DROGBA, cough cough)...So I'd think twice about labelling other players with cheating characteristics such as diving...Then again, I'm sure its simply your way of displaying frustration over how C. Ronaldo is THE one player who's taking your rivals (Man Utd) nowhere else but to the TOP of the table...

If you are a Chelsea fan (think you are, by your user name), you shouldn't talk.
You have 3 or 4 CLINICAL divers on your team, including the biggest diver in the EPL:

This is in ONE game.

I do not need to defend him. His present record does that for him!

I do, however, have a comment and a question for you.
Comment: youtube.com has a longer version of the first video, which shows some contact!
Question: Do you think that video #2 was a good choice to use as an example? Clearly the goalkeeper came at him! Don't you think so?

Because he is simply the greatest talent since Maradonna to play the game.
The kid is so good at football that I even believe he will be better than Pele and Maradonna by the Age of 28.

diver yes...but when he plays his game. he is a remarkable scorer and play maker. he (when not diving) plays smart, unselfish football. i am not his biggest fan, but he i respect his talent. on top of it, he is still young. let's just hope he grows out of it.

did you know that the word "chelsea" stands for cheats + sea?
the greatest divers are there -and at arsenal. shouldn't you be posting that instead?

blah, blah, blah, blah, blah...........That's all I read on these posts regarding Cristiano Ronaldo....What about Henry, Drogba.....Scholes....They are huge divers yet I don't see much written about them..
It is obvious that you people are jealous...otherwise you would just quit it with the negative comments....http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=BrvRGTVkv6Y&mode=related&search=
