“ It’s hypocritical. It’s a shame that that’s what happened. My family’s English (his parents moved to South Africa two years before he was born). In England and Ireland, you’re taught from a young age not to cheat, not to dive, not to do anything that would gain an unfair advantage. The English, and I’ll say, ‘We English,’ expect everyone to be that way but the truth is the rest of the world is taught to do the opposite. Get any advantage you can. For the English and Irish to turn around and hold everyone up to their standards is unrealistic.
