  Drogba's dive warnings

  

   

  Didier Drogba says the reputation he has gained for play-acting has led referees to warn him against diving before league and European games.

  "I've had the feeling everybody regards me as a diver since I had the misfortune to say I sometimes fall over, because I'm being pushed and not because of cheating.

  Now in the Premier League, and the Champions League too, referees come to see me before games and tell me: 'No diving today, eh?'."

  he is dumb to have said such a comments in the 1st place, whereas for Ronaldo, his recent antics of stopping play when rivals tug him in what he himself deem as illegal (but might not have the agreement of the ref) just like in the last game against Wigan might be a case of head getting bigger then his body unless SAF knock some senses into his most prized asset
