Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp insists Robbie Keane is no diver after he saw penalty calls waved away during yesterday's 3-0 defeat to Chelsea.

Redknapp said: "In the first half-hour I was delighted and, at half-time, I thought we could win it.

"Then the penalty. If Robbie goes down with the first contact, it's a penalty.

"He was too honest. If he goes over, it's a penalty. If the referee doesn't feel it's a penalty and it's a dive, he should send him off. It's got to be one or the other, not nothing.

"He apologised after Old Trafford last year. But, given all the talk there's been about diving, he's tried to stay on his feet. I think it plays on people's minds.

"They're scared that if they go down they're going to get a card. I don't want to see people diving if they've not been touched.

"I think he lost his balance. He (Carvalho) has caught him and Robbie's tried to stay on his feet. I suppose it was a sending off for Carvalho too."
