Has Del Piero even once in his career dived without contact?
:agree: yes he did, But nothing to be ashamed of. Majority of football players do dive and anyone that says otherwise is a liar.

Nothing wrong with diving as long as your getting your team a desperate point, biggest names in this sport have done it and yet they're still considered legends....

Nonsense, how could I not like him? Just because I post something that isn't full of Krasic evangelism. But thanks for proving my point.
That was my impression. If you say that's nonsense and not true then I'll take your word for it.
And I fully expect some members here not to be too fond of Krasic, like it was the case with Trez or Camo and it's still the case with Del Piero.

Would be typical my luck, booking tickets and everything for the Milan-Juventus game. And then Krasic get suspended. Our best and most important player, the player I wanted to see the most.

And Iaquinta made it all for nothing.... the worst attacker in Serie A with Amauri, would switch this two fuckers for mediocre players like Matri and Aquafresca

Do you folks honestly think Krasic gives a care what the hell the Bologna fans are saying about him in the stands? Alen, you know the Serb mentality, do you think he'd give a shit?

I don't, and it was clear Bologna was on a mission to shut him down, which is why they had two guys around him all times. Then towards the second half it seemed clear he was tired.

True what you say, although I'm not sure about the whole 'foreign player' thing, more to do with the club. Kaka had about 15 penalties given on him a season for little.
I'm sure of the foreign player thing. They receive more heat for this stuff, just like they are blamed for other matters, too.

He's a very likeable guy, inoffensive in terms of character and shit hot on the pitch. I know this is a Juve forum and we all support the team and get carried away but I try to take a step back now and again because I don't really see how Krasic doing that benefits us in the long run. I know we have a siege mentality here, and rightly so in my opinion (look at the avatar), but as long as I have seen Juve back in Serie A since Farsopoli once we have been given a gift of a decision they tend to go against us again straight after. We have no power or sway to stop it.

But yeah, I did feel bad seeing him do that, I thought he was a bit cuter a player.

:agree:

Personally though I am against blatant dives, although it depends on the circumstances. If the Krasic dive was really so bad and it gets him suspended against Milan, then it wasn't the brightest thing to do. But in some situations even cheating is acceptable (Suarez for Uruguay at the WC).

Sometimes people expect too much honesty from players. Since we're talking about Del Piero, who I must admit that I don't remember dived without any contact, there was a case last year when he tried to shoot the ball, missed it, fell because he lost balance when he missed the ball and the ref gave him a penalty, even if there was no contact at all.
So what was DP supposed to do there? He knew there wasn't any contact and that it wasn't a penalty, but was he supposed to tell the ref that it isn't a penalty?

We can't expect everyone to be like Zlatan, who foolishly stays on his feet and fucks up a potential penalty situation even when he's really fouled or like some exceptions that even told the ref that it wasn't a penalty foul.

Lol, man, we in the Balkans are not any different from you. It depends on the individual.
Mihajlovic was becoming even more motivated when he was insulted and jeered. Stankovic looks much more emotional and he breaks down at such things.
I have no idea how Krasic will react.

I can't believe people are actually criticizing Krasic. I thought that was absolutely brilliant. He made two referees look like fucking idiots. His timing was impeccable. When you watch that from the first time you will have no doubt that it was penalty.

I have never had a problem with players diving. I think it's part of the game and the smartest players know how to put it to their advantage. I have a problem with players faking injuries when there was barely any contact. That really annoys me. Which is why I can't stand C.Ronaldo.

That was pure art by Krasic though.
