Don't look at those stats alone.
Look at the stats in conjunction with others.
3 of our bookings for dives are against Liverpool. But put that with the fact Liverpool haven't had a penalty against them in 46 league games. Are you telling me that no Liverpool defender has committed a foul in the box (intent or not) in 46 games? Not a chance.
I don't know which the other 3 incidences are for us. But most of the refs don't want to give a dive as a booking because replays that may show otherwise will bring a backlash onto them.
Also needs to be considered whether its being done at home or away. Refs more likely to give a contentious decision or one with potential backlash to the home team.

It's 2022 and they're only just starting to pick up on simulation for one team.
Liverpool "legends" like Torres, Gerrard, Suárez and now Salah hacer made careers out of diving but they were never punished.

If outside the box the refs would gave given them. They're too scared to upset the top four. Heaven forbid we got a pen against rs and went on to win.the furore of it all....

It’s an extraordinary stat, especially when you consider that we barely made a foray into the opposition penalty box during Benitez’s entire tenure!
Stats are great. We’ve also played most of the season counter attacking at pace so we’ve won more than our fair share of penalties as well the same as Palace with the likes of Zaha who is much better at knowing how to go down than young Gordon yet.
I’m more amazed in a season as bad as this, fighting for our lives, we’ve only amassed 12 yellow cards.

We are just not very good at it, Salah is like Chalie Chaplin playing on a bed of fairy liquid. One small touch and he doesnt dive but puts in a virtuoso performance. Last weeks penalty decision was a bottle job though. Not only from the referee but VAR.
