Why the hell did he do that? He turned the defender and had a great chance to put a cross in without pressure.

He would have got a penalty for that had he responded when the defender touched his foot. His delay showed there was no issue in staying on his feet.

Haha, why go down like that? :lol: I know there was a touch, but the defender was on the ground and Mane was perfectly positioned to have a pop at goal or lay the ball off to someone for a tap-in.

Matip, TAA and Henderson have had shockers so far.

But it's only players from other teams who dive I thought? Liverpool are the saints of honesty and the scourge of the deceitful

So in that siutation if he goes down like that at the point of contact and not a second or two later does he get the penalty? probably yes which shows why players make so much of any contact these days, he barely got touched but it was the delay that got him the booking not the dive, if that makes sense.

There was barely a touch. Nothing to impede him. Nothing to take him away from the ball.

A contact isnt a foul. That dive is simulation.

Wasn't a pen. Was a booking for simulation.

I’m really hoping Palace drop off like they did against United.

Liverpool haven't sorted out their defence at all. Simple balls over the top send them into a panic every time. The keeper inspires zero confidence as well.

Oh yeah and Mane's dive was shocking.

Offside for sure, but that goalkeeping was terrible
