Liverpool goalkeeper Jose Reina has slammed Chelsea stars Arjen Robben and Didier Drogba over their diving antics.
There has been a simmering feud between Liverpool and Chelsea since Kop keeper Reina was shown a red card for clashing with Robben at Stamford Bridge in February.
Reina told The Sun: "I have never play-acted to get a rival sent off. I'll be coming up against Robben again but I won't do what I did last time. I won't lash out, I'll be calmer.
"He disappointed me a lot and his behaviour left a lot to be desired.
"But I learnt from that mistake. The only consolation is that everybody was on my side and got stuck into Robben."
Reina's comments will enrage Chelsea ahead of their FA Cup semi-final at Old Trafford tomorrow.
The Reds were furious at how easily Robben went to ground after a shove in the neck from Reina. Drogba has also been slammed from all quarters for admitting he is happy to bend the rules to his own ends.
Reina added: "He's already confessed he makes the most of every opportunity he gets - legally or otherwise. Rivals like him are not easy. You can't only pay attention to usual things."
