The question for is - would the ref have given that penalty yesterday without Mane throwing himself to the ground ?

No and that’s my point.

You seem to have a hard time telling the difference between minimal/neglible/simulated contact and genuine contact that forces a player down to the ground.

Mane is dishonest pure and simple.

So it’s only a foul if the contact is enough to put the player to the ground ? The touch impeded the player - simple as that

It's easily solved

Whatever Phil posts on football

The opposite is correct
 
how did it impede him, he "chose" to throw himself to the floor from the touch
He was kicked in the back of the leg - it affected his run , it’s a foul is it not or do you think it’s not a foul ?

Oh look another one who can’t post on the subject without having to make it personal
 
I did see a Chelsea defender go down a bit easy in his own box.
Players are never going to stop it’s coached into them now.


Theyll stop in a heartbeat if proper penalties are brought in for cheating, of which simulation/diving is a massive part of, if the authorities continue to allow it then sadly youre right
