Watch Arsenal vs Burnley Live StreamingSalif Diao claims Didier Drogba's tendency to frequently go to ground is "part of the entertainment" of football.
The pair are close friends and face each other in an FA Cup quarter-final - the Potters' first in 38 years - at Stamford Bridge on Sunday.
Drogba has earned himself a reputation for diving and Diao said although he had spoken to the Ivory Coast international about it, he did not view it as a problem.
"Myself and others tell him to stop diving," he said.
"But it's part of the show for him. It is not cheating, but part of the entertainment."
Diao is full of admiration for a player he has known for a decade, having first encountered Drogba when the pair were playing in France
