Shameful, and you won't find an Arsenal fan who claims otherwise. We all hoped Eboue had stamped this out of his game.

The worst thing about this is not the dive, it's the appeal afterwards to the referee knowing that he hadnt been touched.

You COULD argue that he was expecting the contact and went down to make sure he got the foul. But when he looks up and appeals for the free kick you know 100% that he's a despicable cheat.

speaking of the Lulz, Oasis has split up. Here is my tribute chant to them and their favourite team:

This is how it feels to be City
this is how it feels to be small
this is when your favourite band
cant sing together at all

Pat, you need to get a grip. This is a Manchester United blog, obviously we are going to despise any cheating done against us, as you are against Arsenal. GET OVER IT.

I don't like to see any player dive, including United ones. In this game Eboue did such a blatant one, obviously we are going to talk about it. When Ronaldo did it, we talked about it as well. For fucks sake you need to take a Xanax or go outside and enjoy life. It's not worth it to get this wound up over United fans rightly calling out Eboue cheating.

Pat, what's with the need to stick the word English next to your expletive?

Footballers dive, some more than others. Arsenal players got caught.

But being english has nothing to do with it. Keep your racist comments to yourself thanks and grow up.

when i first saw the "foul" on telly, i did think maybe evra had done a professional whack on him for revenge....especially when the ref was taking his yellow card out of his pocket.

but when i saw eboue's name flashed at the bottom of the screen, it was puzzling. when the replay showed what had really transpired - it was hilarious!!! even my gooner buddy watching with me cringed and cursed out loud! LOL! this followed the equally loud cursing at Almunia, and then the Diaby placement header to score for us! LOL!!

all in all, a really weird and roller coaster match for both of us!

whatever it is - i will always take the points! *** the fancy play all the time, sometimes we need the grit and scrap for it!

Of course Arsene didn't see that. How about we send him a video?
To be honest, the 'dive' looked comical. Eboue needs to go back to diving school.

What was the worst part of it. He was trying to get Evra sent off. I saw the ref, the yellow card and shouted fuck sake Evra you stupid git. Didn't realise until a few secs later it was Eboue up to his usual tricks.

Goes into the long list of crap Arsenal dives. Cashley's dive against us at Highbury, that super hard man Viera's dive at Anusfield when Hamman looked at him

Jesus Arsene get them into the training ground to brush up their skills. Maybe they should employ a skills coach. Any suggestions?

Eboue's attempt to simulate a dive was no more than an attempt to get a UTD player sent off. In the case of Evra possibly because of the 'men versus boys' remarks after Arsenal's humiliation in the CL semi at the Emirates last season.
Ironically, I've yet to see a comment on this incident from any Arse fan or member of their management team, but they were quick to accuse Rooney of 'cheating'. Double standards are still evident amongst the Arsenal mob.
For trying to get an opponent sent off the refs should be able to issue a red card immediately. Eboue should have been off - now that would have upset AW.

Seems like Eduardo thought him the diving trick. How dare Wenger accuse United of being anti football. Is it United's fault that Almunia clearly trips Rooney in the box, is it United's fault Diaby put the ball into his own net. What a bunch of sore losers you gooners are.

This is thypical excatly what Arsene Wenger train his players how to play to dive, to kick to deceive the ref, and when thing went against him he is ready to open his bloody ASSSSS Mouth to complain, what a shame to Wenger and Arsenal.

to add to my other comment - isn't it funny too, re: hypocrisy that Celtic had Aiden McGeady sent off for a 2nd yellow. The 2nd card? It was for a lovely Eduardo-like dive. Funny ha-ha. See, how can the ref's take the issue seriously when Wednesday one team fumes at the decision before Saturday they then go and do exactly the same thing. This respect campaign is part of this. The referee's want the players to grow up and play fair. The players won't. The Celtic manager, Tony Mowbray insisted referee Dougie McDonald was wrong to send off Aiden McGeady for the alleged dive in Celtic's 1-0 win over Hibernian. Celtic started the debate off on Wednesday, then go and kill off any support and sympathy they may have gotten.
