If Mane's is a dive then Kane's against Newcastle & Arsenal (which did not lead to penalties) are also dives
Ah here if that was Kane instead of Mane they would have been screaming stonewall penalty, great work to win the ball and force the defender into the mistake, contact in the box so entitled to go down blah blah blah.
It was VERY soft and the fling to the floor was dramatic but probably just barely enough to warrant a penalty for me.
The reaction of Albrighton said it all for me, if he didn't believe it was a foul he would have been in Mane's face calling it a dive but he just slumped to his knees because he knew he fucked up
This is where I feel a rugby style sin should come into operation somehow say, for a first diving offence, 5 mins in the sin bin, second diving offence yellow card, 3rd red card. 3 consecutive matches where you have been sin binned amounts to a 3 match suspension from ALL FOOTBALL
Good on Klopp not answering questions from the Sun

You are welcome.
Yours sincerely,
Wolverhampton Wanderers
That was fantastic from Wolves, no fear at all and when the opportunity to attack the poor defense of City arose they absolutely went for it, 2-0 flattered City, could have been 4 in truth. Very happy for Traore too, seems like a good lad with bundles and buckets of talent but often his final ball let's him down, not today though 2 excellent and cool finishes, top class.
Wolves are an excellent side with a world class manager so fair play and thanks from a Liverpool fan
I don't recall Manchester City losing two games so early in the season last year, Pep must wondering what's happened, but fantastic result by Wolves so I hope now teams will realise that there is a way to beat City
Liverpool at home to City soon & a chance for them to open up a good lead, which they will need because not only is the winter schedule in the run up to Christmas packed, there is the World Club Cup Championship for 11 days in December
I have to say that's where Man City have to grab back the advantage while you're chasing that trophy

Yeah which is why it's imperative to build up a lead before then, 8 points clear, next 4 games are Man U, Spurs, Villa and then they play City. Have to be ruthless in those 4 games and go all out for maximum points to put a marker down, if Liverpool are serious and want to be champions then that's what they need to do. City could easily win 15 or 16 games on the spin no bother and then the points advantage evaporates.
