I don't disregard your post and appreciate true soccer dialog. It's great to have. And, if you knew I'd bring up Klinsmann then you appreciate my point and must agree.
I know some diving is unwarranted but what's the difference when a foul occurs and all players run over waving their hand with the card gesture. Just as repulsive! Again, the players know FIFA's directives and push the limits with that as well.
Has Italy, and everyone else, taken dives? Yes. Italy branded cheats? Hell, no. Or, every team goes with them. And, of course, Voeller and Klinsmann.
