Everton winger Anthony Gordon has rejected claims of him being a serial diver.
Gordon is currently away with the England U21 squad and addressed the claims on Wednesday.
"I am not sure why people have been calling me a diver," said Gordon. "If you look back at the games, I'm getting kicked quite a lot. I'll take that as a compliment.
"I know I'm not a diver, videos prove that. I might go down every now and then but that's because I'm getting kicked. I don't know what people want me to do.
"It happens to really good one-on-one players,' he added. 'If someone is good at that they are going to get past a lot of players and hacked down every now and then."
