It seems that Cameroonian defender Aurélien Chedjou is expressing frustration with the behavior of French footballer Mathieu Valbuena, particularly his tendency to exaggerate and simulate fouls during matches. Valbuena has been known for his perceived theatrics on the field, often accused of diving at the slightest contact.
Chedjou didn’t hold back in his criticism of Valbuena, acknowledging his football skills but expressing disappointment in the theatrics. Chedjou stated, “Frankly, in terms of football, he’s a great player, but it’s a shame that he does so much cinema. And if he doesn’t want to be touched, let him change sports.”
The comments suggest a frustration with Valbuena’s perceived play-acting, with Chedjou indicating that such behavior is not welcomed, especially among defenders in the league. The incident mentioned in the statement involves Valbuena’s actions leading to the expulsion of Florent Balmont in a match between Marseille and Lille. These types of controversies often fuel discussions and debates within the football community about fair play and sportsmanship on the field.
