Isn't that sad. Limited exposure to "the top flight" and "top players" and suddenly cheating is ingrained. It's probably part of training. There's absolutely no need for it. Please correct me if I'm wrong but is Messi the only great player of recent times (in living memory?) not to have dived? Bale advocating it makes my stomach churn.
He’s travelling at some speed mind, so the slightest touch has consequences. I don’t think I’m being kind either.
Giggsy should have a word with him. Don't recall him ever diving and defenders used to kick the ****e out of him when he was Dan's age.
Ok, my mistake. I obviously don't watch enough "top level" football Surely if you're one of the best why do you need (or want) to dive? I just don't get it.
It's what foreign footballers get coached to do from a young age. Top clubs over here now have our players (British) doing it so that they can do the foreign clubs in Europe etc.
Another great piece of business by us though : Dan James worth £60 Million now. https://www.walesonline.co.uk/sport/football/transfer-news/man-utd-daniel-james-transfer-17524498
In fairness one of the criteria is the ability of the selling club to tell others to feck off - we only say thank you!
He was only worth what clubs at the time were willing to pay, no one knew he could make the step up as he has
I know we sold him way too cheap. He had already proved he was capable with his performance against Man City in the cup etc.
I understand why you would belive that but didn't the rest of the team perform as well that "day" now look at them , by the way Celinas goal far out weighed James performance although it didn't do him any harm
Frankly speaking, you did well. If he had stayed he would always have been valued as someone who did well in the Championship at a club that is known as a selling club in order to survive....and MAY do well elsewhere in the Premiership. Now, he's a player doing well in the Premiership at a club rich enough to name their price. The risk has been removed and it's a seller's market.
