Ah here.

Footballers often get a bad rap for going to ground too easily; sometimes it’s harsh but sometimes, to be fair, it’s fully deserved.

The reaction of Leeds United’s Adryan to a tackle by Derby County’s Johnny Russell on Saturday definitely belongs in the latter category as although Russell may well have caught Adryan, the Brazilian reacted like a fish that had just been reeled out of water.

Whatever about all the rolling around, that dive at the end was just a little bit ridiculous.

Come on Adryan, it can’t have been THAT bad, can it?
