how to play fifa 14

fifa coins The art of diving to win advantageous free-kicks or penalties has been a thorn in the side of football for many years. I use the phrase 'thorn in the side' largely due to the controversial nature of the issue. Universally acknowledged as being an underhand tactic; diving, or 'simulation' as FIFA prefer to describe it, has become more prevalent than ever.

fifa 14 coinsPlayers who do appear to regularly throw themselves to the floor have been lambasted by the media (in the UK especially) and vilified by fans. However, such is the level at which football is played in the modern era, is it time that we concede that this is one evil that will never be eradicated?

Last week, the Premiership's perennial pantomime baddie character of El-Hadji Diouf admitted to the media that he has no shame in partaking in 'simulation'. The Senegalese international proclaimed, "Sometimes I need to dive to have a penalty. It's just football. The best footballer is very clever like that." There is a certain school of thought that Diouf relishes the reaction he receives from opposition supporters, and so would willingly court such controversy.

However, it must in some way be acknowledged that he is not alone cheap fut coins in going to ground in order to 'con' an official. The Bolton man goes on to state that reputation could influence how certain players are viewed on this issue, "It's not just me who dives. If you see Wayne Rooney, how often does he dive to get a penalty?" Without obviously pointing any accusing fingers in the direction of Mr Rooney, it could be argued that it is not merely the vilified that dive.
