Paul McShane isn’t happy with being accused of diving on Match of the Day

He's having none of it

Darragh Murphy

With simulation at an all time high in the modern game, Paul McShane will do whatever it takes to prove that he’s no diver.

The Hull defender has taken to Twitter this morning to hit back at claims on Match of the Day that he went down too easily under a challenge from Yaya Sanogo when he realised he wasn’t getting to a whipped-in ball.

Alan Shearer had suggested that McShane might have bought the free out when he hit the deck but the Irishman was quick to let everyone know that there was genuine contact.
