When you're running at that speed and someone makes contact with you, you're going to go down. I don't think anyone can really call that a dive, unless they've got their Arsenal tinted specs on.

Wouldnt call that a dive

Doesnt change the fact he is a diver

He's lucky to be alive.

Contact shouldn't equal a pelanty anyway. Sort it out FIFA.

True he doesn't get criticised by the press as much as someone like Suarez (who despite being a twat has been unfairly denied multiple penalties because he's considered a "diver"). And he has definitely dived in the past (against us last season at the Emirates) but this one today wasn't a dive IMO.

More from Tottenham winger Gareth Bale:
"That's the third time now I've been clipped and booked for no reason again. There's nothing I can do, the referees need to look a bit closer. People think I'm diving when there's contact. If there's contact it's a penalty or free kick, there's nothing I can do. If there's contact, what do you want me to do - hit my head on the floor? I have to put my hands down to protect myself. If people kick me, I'm going to go down. It doesn't bother me, people keep saying I'm diving but it doesn't bother me whatsoever. It's a foul and I know it myself."
