Commentary saying the Noble fall could be deemed as a dive. No one appeals for it or even looks at the official for a foul?

Agree ...just seemed to lose his balance as he couldn’t decide what to do with his feet .....players know that there is var so a penalty won with a dive will be reversed .... why would they bother ?   Seems to be less diving in the box this season as a consequence

I'm assuming you mean with regards to England? But I'm not sure if you're being sarcastic... JM didn't even get a minute for England, so Southgate obviously doesn't fancy him.

Not sarcastic ....and I think Grealish is more Southgate’s type of player tbh ......

Grealish has a little more pace than madders ...JM needs to be careful or he may not remain flavour of the month for too long.... with Ali regaining fitness, an in form Grealish could put Madders under some pressure 

Grealish would overtake Maddison, then he'll just have to displace Barkley, Mount, Loftus Cheek, Chamberlain, Lingard, Emile Smith Rowe, Will Hughes, Fabian Delph, Tom Huddlestone, Nick Pope etc.

His leg seems to just buckle and he loses balance as you said. Just a throwaway comment from the commentator but it irritated me. 

 

and I agree, less blatant dives but arguably more dramatic falls for touches given they know VAR will review and it'll look worse in slow mo.

Ah fair enough I thought something was going over my head. I think the only reason he was taken in the first place was due to the media. It's ridiculous how he didn't even get a cameo in any of the two games.

Mark Noble is on the way down [before the tackle comes in]. He should receive a second yellow. He’s trying to deceive the referee and win a penalty. He’s dived.

The description Carra uses of the Noble dive is exactly what basically every player does to win a penalty, leaves their leg in or places it where they know it's going to be hit. Rashford's penalty for England was a perfect example of this. But obviously no one called that up

Wtf just happened looked like Wesley dived instead of shooting. He pull up or something. 

Absolutely no clue, seemed a glorious chance and he fell to the floor. The replay shows he just massively dives.

Hoping they crack down on these dives. Wesley full on went for the salmon at the end

They were all dives, all could've been given as bookings
