Thierry Henry Apologises For Swearing At Arsenal Fan

Luis Suarez. Hypocrite.

Stumbled upon an old Daily Mail interview from March 2011. Read though it, but then I read this:

"Van Basten taught me a lot about how to play as a forward; about shooting techniques and about things that worked for him. His movement, his technique.

But from all of them I learned about remaining calm on the pitch; when in front of goal and also when being fouled. You have to try not to react; take a step back. I learned to control my attitude more."

From a Youtube search of "Luis Suarez dive".

Interviewer must have forgot to add "said Suarez as he had a large grin on his face" after that quote.

Can't forget the one against Everton either, where he rolled around on the floor as if he had his broken leg until Jack Rodwell was sent off. Probably thinks it's okay to dive because it's a friendly gesture in South America.

Joey Barton Cries Wolf, People Shocked That He's Serious

Joey Barton, a man famous for causing violence on and off the pitch was sent off against QPR for attacking Bradley Johnson. He believes the Norwich players conned the Referee to send him off. Let's watch.



Four incidents.

1) Lashes out at player 0:02
2) Elbow out 0:06
3) Barges into Johnson 0:10
4) Headbutts Johnson 0:12

I would say that's *quite* silly, Joey. That's violent conduct, something you're familiar with. At least you don't do this conning busin-

Oh.

Considering Barton's career is built on deceiving officials and causing trouble, this is sweet justice. Would think he would be a bit smart with all those philosophy books he reads.
