Every Sunday night, without fear or favour Chris Sutton calls them out on The Simulation Game on BBC 5 Live!
Big or small he trawls through the weekend action to name and shame the players that go down easily or without a touch to gain penalties, free kicks and cards for opponents.
Tonight at Goodison Park the biggest name in English football made a dramatic entry for next Sunday’s simulation game.
It was a physical and feisty match clash between Everton and Spurs, two teams badly out of form and in need of three points.

Right in front of the dug-outs Kane clashed with Abdoulaye Doucoure, arms were raised by both players but the minute that the Everton man made contact with Kane’s face the England skipper theatrically hit the deck clutching his face.
There was contact but it was minimal, Kane’s reaction was completely over the top with #cheating and #embarrassing soon trending on Twitter. Doucoure was sent off.
Within an hour Sutton had more than 300 replies on Twitter- with the drama set to roll on through the week.
Kane put Spurs ahead with a penalty soon after the red card but Michael Keane equalised with the point more welcome for Everton than manager-less Spurs.
Harry Kane staying down like that is embarrassing

That’s worthy of the simulation game. Truly.

Oh come on Chris. He’s just been smacked in the face… name me a PL player who stays on his feet? You’d have gone down.

Not for the first time yet it is these ‘bloody foreigners’who are the ones who dive and cheat? English players such as Kane and sterling are at least as bad as Johnny Foreigner
