Pundit slams out at Ayew

Andre Ayew has received the thick side of Alan Shear’s tongue who reckons the Hammers striker should be facing a ban for diving.

Ayew looked to have been fouled inside the box against Leicester causing a big debate among the pundits as to whether he should have been awarded a penalty but Shearer had no doubts.

The striker’s  alleged dive could not be looked at by an adjudication panel because it didn’t result in a penalty but Shearer reckons that regulation should be changed.

He said: “This one is definitely not a penalty. This is a dive. “The unfortunate thing is that the panel cannot look at that. They should be able to.”

He added: “If they want to stamp diving out then the panel should be able to go back. They should look at that also and he should face a ban because that’s a terrible dive.”
