RE: Nani. He is a big diver, and does quite a bit of acting, but how can anyone seriously call him out for what happened on the weekend? If that gash (see Valo's post) is acting and being a fairy, then what does it take to not be considered one? If he deserved a yellow card for what he did, then every player being fouled for the rest of the season should get a yellow. Really shows the knowledge of some people.

Don't forget, last year Fabregas scored with a broken leg and played for a short time after before subbed off. It happens all the time in every sport - athletes continuing through injury for a short period of time through adrenaline. In this case, Nani rushing over immediately after the foul.

How anyone can claim Nani was faking injury is beyond me.
