I liked Erik Lamela before it was cool

What do you want him to do then after getting hit in the face?
Stend there and expect the ref and VAR give a red out of nowhere?
Pogba, Shaw and Bailly all should have got red cards.
You have to make the referee's decision for them.

Auto correct changed he to be. In my post I said I'm glad he did it.

But yeah it was wrong. Hope he does it more and more. Had enough of being nice guys, let's win.

1) They're not. There's nothing genetic about diving.

What IS ok to say is that players who have come from certain leagues may be more likely to dive. It's ok to suggest Lamela is likely to dive because he played in Argentina, it's not ok to say he's likely to dive because he's Argentinian.

The two often correlate but there's no causation.

2) No. Categorising people because of their genetic make up or place of birth is racist.

Go down that road and you're on your way to being an Australian.

Perfectly put.

So you're admitting that you're racist then.

You know, if we bought him on instead of Lucas, we might have gotten away with it. He seems like the only man in the entire 25-man squad with the iron meteorology and game management know-how to actually succeed at this level.

We missed him and Lo Celso today.
Even if only half fit , just to see the game out instead of bringing bloody Harry winks on !
We also missed Dier and Tanganga as they are the only two that are even half decent aerially. I feared the worst when I heard they were both out.
Perhaps if Levy had refrained from doing his deadline day deal and got Rodon over the line a day earlier he could have been on the bench and would surely have come on towards the end when they put Soucek up top and we were getting battered aerially.

So the reason we lost is Levy's fault?
