NGog agent - My player is not a cheat

Liverpool striker David N'Gog's agent claims his under-fire client is not a cheat following the storm which has erupted since Monday's 2-2 draw with Birmingham City. N'Gog has been widely criticised after appearing to win a cheap penalty against the Blues which Steven Gerrard converted to earn the struggling Reds a point. Birmingham midfielder Lee Carsley accused the French youngster of cheating, but agent Bruno Satin has leapt to the defence of his client. - McLeish blasts N'Gog for Anfield dive - Liverpool 2-2 Birmingham City "He wouldn't try and con the ref," he told The Sun. "He's a lad with very good education, correct and polite. He doesn't look for these things. He's never had a problem of this type before in his career. "Maybe he fell down because he was worried about being injured? At times players make very hard challenges in England. They allow a lot of things to defenders in the Premier League. At times it's really on the limit. "Sometimes there are challenges that can assassinate you. A defender could get five matches for throwing his shirt and the player who broke the leg of Eduardo only had a three-game suspension. "Did the defender put the safety of the player in danger? You have to look at things in a more reasonable proportion."
