Vardy's face. Highlight of the weekend already. Have that Steptoe

 

[mudshark]

Who was that guy on the touchline in the Claude Puel mask? Almost seemed to have personality episodes at times.

 

[scaramanga]

Anyone know if there's somewhere I can put money on Salah diving for a penalty?

No sane bookie should take that bet.

 

[Denmark Spur]

Oi oi

Townsend puts Palace ahead at Anfield

 

[Kandi1977]

Agent Townsend! Good goal that!

 

[jts1882]

Townsend might not be a great goalscorer, but he has become the scorer of great goals.

 

[Kandi1977]

Liverpool are fudging disgusting and pathetic! Every time they fall over, the entire team scream and wave to get a fk/penalty. Every single time.

 

[Kandi1977]

Salah again trying a pathetic dive to get a pen! That should surely be a booking! fudging disgusting clam

 

[fernadez]

Worst dive ever

 

[Jordinho]

No sane bookie should take that bet.

What about two in one game?

 

[jts1882]

A hattrick?

Salah's reputation is beginning to break the Klopp-love in the media. From the Guardian live text:

Mo Salah takes what looks to be a blatant dive in the Crystal Palace penalty area, but avoids a booking for reasons best known to referee Jonathan Moss.

 

[JerusalemMan]

Anyone know if there's somewhere I can put money on Salah diving for a penalty?

Did you find anywhere?

 

[Lemonade Money]

Isn't there retrospective punishment tfor diving? Someone should make a video that can't be ignored.

 

[scaramanga]

Did you find anywhere?

Unfortunately not

 

[jts1882]

2-2

 

[Denmark Spur]

fudging Speroni

 

[Hotshot-Tottenham]

All the luck.

Two huge defections and an absolute gift from a woefully miskicked corner.

 

[scaramanga]

All the luck.

Two huge defections and an absolute gift from a woefully miskicked corner.

Almost as much luck as when Leicester stole it.

 

[MKSpur]

Almost as much luck as when Leicester stole it.

it is beginning to look that way.

BBC Sport football expert on Final Score

He's thrown two goals in the back of the net. There's no way to be kind about this. Crystal Palace have worked so hard for this but Speroni has helped Liverpool enormously.

To score twice at Anfield as Palace have done and not get anything would be tough.

Just like all that luck Goons got v WBA when their sub keeper played his first match of the season, which became his last ever in the prem, also under Hodgson...
