wow, all that rage and arguing about diving or not.
Initial thought was that rooney's wasn't a penalty nor a dive cause he was anticipating the contact and took to the air, but then I guess with his arguements after, then by definition it should be classified as a dive. But there is no question about Sturridge.
I'm all for giving time to Moyes in all of my previous posts, however...looking back, has there been any improvement in the style of play or in the cohesiveness of the squad towards being more than a mid-level club?? Of course, you can blame the lack of a quality DMF, the demoralization of the players, but to be completely honest, I don't think he knows what he has and uses them effectively. Instead of adapting to what is given to him, he'd rather want the players to adapt to his style which, isn't fully utilizing his squad nor is it producing results.
And the heavy use of Cleverly to chase a lead rather than Kagawa is just....I give up trying to give Moyes excuses...but Patience is a virtue...so if a few years in the mid-table section is needed to clear some bad blood or get us back on top, I think I'll be fine with it...will be very painful though.
