Footballers with low pain thresholds

Is this low pain thresholds, or players that play act?

Louis Saha has to be a player with a low threshold, who could only play when 100% fit.
 
It’s seems to be a more common theme that a player goes down…and goes out of shot of the tv cameras as the opposition attacks.

but wow. When his team regains possession and the camera swings back the other way (half expecting to see a player in a crumpled heap) they’re up sprinting to get into a good attacking position
 
I hate him as a player. The diving, the histrionics, the way he did Gomes and the crocodile tears afterwards. Twat of a player and a wimp too.

Remember this? His reaction to a finger brushing his cheek.


That’s a prime example of players capitalising on knowing VAR is utter shite. Still can’t believe that was chalked off.
 
Most those players have longer limbs and a more ectomorphic body. Makes sense.
