Football behind closed doors changes a lot of things for players.

The absence of supporters does not galvanize, intimidate and call into question the notion of home matches.

But that's not all.

According to Burnley coach Sean Dyche, Premier League players take advantage of the sound context to crate when they fall into the box.

History of scratching penalties.

Players who "squeal and howl"

“The new fashion now is the simulation of an injury and the players are screaming and holding their faces.

And for the referee because of the behind closed doors stadiums, it seems like a way to make him think differently when you start yelling and yelling.

[…] Now you have blatant cheating, blatant feints of injury, with people squealing and screaming.

"

There is arguably some truth in what Burnley's boss is saying, but let's not forget these are the words of a man whose side are 18th in the Premier League with a point.
