David Luiz

[Yeboii 1,844]

There was absolutely no need for that, so immature and unnecessary, IMHO.

And for those who defend him: can you do a simple mental exercise and pretend for a minute it was a Man United player who went down and then started laughing? Would you still think it was OK?

And if that doesn't help pretend it was a Liverpool player :-)

I'm not saying there shouldn't have been a red card, that's a different issue altogether.

If it was a Chelsea player that would have kicked a United player and the United player fell down because of it and laughed because it was a stupid foul (like what happened today). I would be angry at the Chelsea player for doing that, not the United player for laughing at the stupidity

"Rafael could have killed David Luiz"

I don't get how our own supporters can be upset at DL for smirking not more than a few games ago Mata was taken down in the box and when he got up smirked and winked at Hazard and no one said anything then but oh wait.. we hold Mata to a different standard over DL who has rekindled the fire in the team for the last few months... yes he probably could have not smirked fine but who cares what the media thinks of him they already think our team is a joke by the way we sack managers and our "negative football" win of the Champions League

Hes just laughing because he knows Rafael has made a cunt of himself and is bound to get sent off for something that stupid.

Always good to see United players get sent off.


Good stuff by Luiz.

Oh, fuck yourself, old dickhead. He didn't roll on or anything. So biting a duplicate hand by a captain was called professional and falling because of the stupid kick wasn't professional. How old you are!!

I've been watching the video and laughing my ass off for about 3 hours now. lolol, it gets better and better each time I press replay.

I rather have him laughing it off than acting like he got shot in the leg.
Another great performance from Luiz.

For me it's not mutually exclusive - Rafael's foul doesn't dignify what Luiz did or vice versa.

No need to take sides, I would be angry with both of them.

Seems to be people don't mind if he goes down and pretends to be hurt, but laughing at the fans who are barracking him is wrong?

Did he break the suspension of disbelief? Do we need him to commit more to the role of 'injured player' when he playacts?

Players milk bad tackles all the time. They feign injury in order to draw attention to things that would otherwise have been missed. His actions in this case didn't actually have any effect in my opinion because Rafael kicked him right in front of the assistant ref.

All he's done is make Chelsea fans love him even more and given opposing fans a spurious reason to dislike him. Big fucking deal.

Luiz had a good game driving Chelsea from the back but he did have one bad moment with Rafael - not the corner flag incident everyone's talking about - but the moment when Rafael cut inside and Luiz went walk-about leaving Ivanovic alone in defence. thankfully, Rafael's cross was deflected behind. Ivanovic was pissed off at that point but that's one area where Luiz can work on - Positioning

What's the big fuss all about? It's football, we 'support' and 'follow' faraway situated millionaires' playthings and pretend that other millionaires kicking a bag of air around for 90 minutes actually matters enough for us to continue shelling out good money on watching them do that. In the course of that we build up rivalries with other misguided fools and get involved in the whole 'my dick is bigger than yours' debate. It's tribalism, we're all hypocrites; we choose to become that when we choose to follow a franchisee. Chill out, none of it really matters. Plus, it was fucking funny.

Love you geezer.

FACT 1: Luiz's blatant smirk - to me- was the highlight in an otherwise bloodless game (besides the goal that is). Come on, you just got to love Man U get f***ed in their own stadium.

Loved the sideshow-Bob analogy btw, it's been on repeat since yesterday

FACT2: Modern day football players get payed to a) go down and inflict cards on their opponents by exaggerating the gravity of the opponent's faul. This is called manipulating

the face of a game with intelligence and personality and is an aspect of the game that shouldn't be underestimated or criticised! Overacting is embedded in the game; hell,

everyone does it without fans even realizing it. So excuse me, but blaming Luiz for this flash of honesty (in losing his mask) is having the wrong priorities, dude. There are no ethics when it comes

to toying with your opponents. We should be proud of him, if anything, to know that he's talented and skilled enough to pull something off like this. The faul was made and was a 100%

red card. It has happened to us as well.

FACT 3: Being a Chelsea fan you should stick with your team through thick and through thin. HE didn't take red, right? :blue scalf:

Or how about both of them are removed entirely?
