BALE'S DIVE

Sun Oct 07, 2012 9:29 pm

Anyone else notice it against Villa - around the 10 minute mark?

Shocking, really. What's the lad up to? :shock:

Couldn't upload to the forum itself, but here's GIF file showing the dive: http://i.minus.com/iI04qBVyEBQp2.gif

Think he just tries to get out of the way though does look a bit over the top but he never appeals for it

He's a terrible diver Bale.


He gets away with it thought because he's probably the best British player.

If he wasn't as good or was foreign they'd be right on him.

He's always at it and he's even started that Suarez nonsense of tripping himself up on the back of his heel to try and win free kicks and penalties. He should definitely move to Madrid, he'd fit right in.

He's one of the worst divers in the league, definitely. I mean I love him as a player for his ability but hate how he cheats like that, did it 3/4 times really bad like that last season.

If you seen it on tv you will see that he is leaning over and his left foot slips,from under him, no dive here :thumbup:

The Suarez dive was much funnier.

You can see he clips his own heels and the only reason he doesn't appeal is because he knows there was no contact. Bale is bad for diving but he does also have the shit kicked out of him so if I was him I'd be doing it for my own protection as much as anything!
