Pulis: FA should have punished Ivanovic

Stoke boss Tony Pulis today claimed Chelsea’s Branislav Ivanovic should be facing a three-match suspension after he accused the defender of diving in Saturday’s Barclays Premier League clash between the two sides.

Speaking after the match last weekend, Pulis expressed his anger at the behaviour of Ivanovic and Blues team-mate Oscar in Stoke’s 1-0 defeat at Stamford Bridge, branding the pair “laughable” for what he dubbed their “simulation” and saying the issue needed to keep being highlighted.
