Mancini ill apologize and it will be lost in translation. He won't be charged.
As for Dzeko, I hope his injury is not bad. Agger definitely went through the back of him. Boo hoo.
City aren't performing so they're desperation resorts to blaming the officials. Liverpool outplayed you. You were lucky to get a draw!
Stop blaming the officials. Leave that to our Fergie!

So because you haven't heard it, we're not allowed to criticise someone that dives.
Riiiiight.
Mancini's words were very, very similar to those used by Fergie which led to him being charged.
Mancini said that the ref saw everything in Liverpool's favour, "flag, flag, flag, flag" but he didn't see the foul which cost City a goal.
How is that any different to what Fergie said?

it was hardly a dive, in my honest opinion i thought it was a foul, can't complain though

I agree it was a foul but he was not hurt and there was no reason to stop the match. Faking injury is cheating, plain and simple. City got what they deserved imo.
No winston it's just high comedy considering the amount of simulators you have.

Nothing comedy about it. If a United player cheats, I'll criticise him for it.
If someone else cheats, I'll do the same.
The only hypocrisy on display here is coming from you; Dzeko was clearly cheating yesterday, and that is what we're discussing, but all you can say is that Man Utd have players that dive.

Why do people come out with pointless crap like this?
If a United player dives he will be criticised by United fans. Why is it that City and Liverpool fans in particular defend their players' behaviour by pointing to bad behaviour of other teams?
If someone like Young dives does that make it ok for City players to lie on the floor for several minutes faking injury? Does that make it acceptable to you?
Are people only allowed to criticise players of other clubs if nobody at their club has ever done anything wrong in the history of that club?
Why?

There's no logic to it, that's for sure.
I personally think it's a lack of maturity. Some fans are able to accept criticism of their player and acknowledge when they've done something wrong.
Others, like this guy, see criticism of their player and jump on the defensive.
United have them too - but it's a shame as it just almost always ends in a childish game of 'my Dad's bigger than your Dad'.
Winston, agreed. I actually get far more annoyed when United players dive/cheat than when players of other clubs do it. I expect better from United and i want my team to win fairly, or not at all.
redmisty (U7556)
Yep, agreed.
It was the same with the coin throwing incident.
One fan on the City board had the audacity to ignore the incident itself, and just respond by citing the bottle that was thrown at Craig Bellamy!

------------------
....who deserves several bottles thrown at him. Anyone think he contributed to the post match analysis yesterday?
I think Bellamy must have so many splinters in his backside from his constant fence sitting. Not wanting to upset City or Pool fans!
"well look, I can see why Liverpool carried on the attack but I can also see City's point that it was a foul......"
Bore of Bellers! Have an opinion ffs!
he spent most of the time looking at the floor and then sort of sprung into life when Redknapp asked him for an opinion, which as you say was not really an opinion
They should have put old man Summerbee on! Much more entertaining!
Summerbee: "I don't agree with that, City had the lion's share of the game. Liverpool were limited to just the 2 chances"
Presenter: "Well actually the stats show that Liverpool had more than twice more shots on target than City and 56% posession"
Summerbee: "Well I'm not a great believer in stats but City were undoubtedly the stronger team who looked like winning the game".

I was just thinking the same thing!
Funny how he's never been invited back...
That rant was well worth getting him back for! For me it makes Rooney's scissor kick even more memorable! :D
