Yeah, I agree 100% that Diego Costa is pathetic. I'm a Real Madrid supporter and we absolutely hate him and don't want him to play for Spain.
Also LOL! Since when did Sweden win anything!? 
Spain and Italy play to win at any cost. If that means pushing the rules, so be it. Though I do hate blatant dives when they haven't been touched or pretending to be injured, but if that's the price of success, so be it. It's not like Spain cheats anyway. It's more of a Barcelona problem... 
Finally LOL! Like Man U have only one player that dives... 
Okay, I'm going to comment on these things in order!
1. lolMadrid
2. In the era 1950-1960 Sweden was one of the best in the World, second only to Brazil really. We took bronze in the World Cup 1950 and 1994, silver 1958. We also won the gold in the Olympic Games 1948 and took silver 1952. I have a strong feeling that during the next 10 years from now we will actually be on the rise again for another period like the one we had in the 50's. Just two weeks ago our U17 national team took bronze in the World Cup and they only lost to Nigeria who then went on to win the whole thing. Especially one guy by the name of Valmir Berisha you should pay attention to during the coming years because he might develop into the next Zlatan Ibrahimovic
3. See, that mentality I don't really like, to win at all cost? Is that what we are going to teach our kids these days? Sport athletes are supposed to be role models for the youth of our society and by cheating their way to victory then they send a message that it is okay to do so in every aspect of your life. I mean, cheat on exams in school or sell your mother for a fortune, whatever it takes right?
4. lolBarcelona without Messi
5. Yes, basically they only have Ashely Young who takes a dive on a consistent basis since they sold Ronaldo to Real Madrid
I was actually happy that Van Persie missed the pentalty in Champions League last match since it came from Young taking a dive again. Usually the manager David Moyes really hates when his players do things like that, and he took a stand against Young once but Young just doesn't give a sh*t about it. But maybe we can find the answer to that in comment number 3, since his role models in football made him think that it is ok to win by any means necessary maybe we shouldn't blame him at all for it? <_<
