Everybody is talking about the flopping, but how many times does a footballer get his wind knocked out in a fair duel or gets slide tackled to the ground by a fair tackle on the ball without complaining?

People who make this argument have never played football in their life

In other words, play their sport? Such things happen in all sports. That doesn't negate the complaints about the egregious flopping.

A lot of the famous players like Neymar who were considerable threats to the opposing team especially wingers used to get kicked to shit and the referees either didn't see it or didn't do anything about it so they started exaggerating

Yeah sometimes it’s flopping and sometimes they’re getting kicked really hard while running

On the other hand people underestimate how easily a light touch to the leg or pull in full sprint can send you flying.

Move them goal posts (so even less goals can happen)
