He should be retrospectively punished. It's embarrassing to the game.
 
It's all a bit ridiculous but all I see is that everyone overreacts to anything these days, both players and people posting stuff online.
 
With VAR this kind of play acting should be penalized. But I don't understand why uefa or whoever can't retrospectively sanction a player for this type of behavior. Reviewing these plays and awarding a yellow even after the match has ended should be automatic.
 
I think people get surprised/chocked/disappointed because they see Chiellini as a fair player with a lot of sportsmanship. I think people in general expect more fair play from defenders and especially CBs. But top defenders have been diving like this for years now: Dani Alves, Ramos, Pepe, Thiago Silva , Marquinhos, Jordi Alba, Piquet, ....

Does not excuse him that everybody else does it, but these guys are winners, they will eat babies if that would help them win. To believe they prefer fair play instead of trophies is naive.
 


His knowledge of the game is incredible, seems to know a lot about English football.

One of the best eps yet, never seen Keane so dumbstruck and in awe of someone.
