Jonathan Walters calls for the FA to ban Chico Flores
JONATHAN Walters says the FA should ban Chico Flores for play-acting.
Swansea’s Flores threw himself to the ground in Sunday’s draw against Stoke after claiming he had been struck in the face by Steven Nzonzi.
Referee Robert Madley ignored Flores’ theatrics and showed the centre-back a yellow card.
But Stoke striker Walters said: “For someone to fall over clutching their face when he hasn’t been touched, trying to con the referee, they should be banned. It’s the same as a dive. They need to look at it – it’s disgraceful.”
