Chris Sutton feels Man City have a player who is one of the worst divers of all time

Jack Grealish, in Chris Sutton’s opinion, is among the top five worst diver to have ever played the game.

Grealish was frequently demonized by both supporters and commentators during his spell at Aston Villa because they believed he went down easily.

The Manchester City specialist has also been among the Premier League’s most fouled players for a number of years.

But some would counter that the Englishman is fouled a lot, which is why he falls as frequently as he does.

On X, Chris Sutton listed the top five worst divers in football history, with Jack Grealish coming in at number four.

Chris Sutton calls out Man City player for diving

Harry Kane of Bayern Munich was first, followed by Bruno Fernandes of Manchester United, Cristiano Ronaldo of Al-Nassr in third place, and Todd Cantwell of Rangers in fifth.

Some would say that Grealish is a diver while others would call him a clever player who likes to ride challenges.

The 28-year-old appears to be aware of when and how to draw fouls, but he only does it in response to the flow of the play rather than persistently attempting to draw fouls and penalties out of the blue.

Man City star Grealish is constantly fouled

The majority of the time, though, midfielders and defenders viciously take down Grealish, and few players could survive such tackles.

The other names mentioned by Sutton are players who are known to go down easily and deceive the officials.

Kane, Fernandes and Ronaldo can all be classified as players who like to go down easily and win a foul by illegal means.

The Man City midfielder is currently out with an injury and considering how crucial he was last season for the treble winners, Pep Guardiola would need him to be at his best at the business end of the season.
