Ivan Juric, manager of Southampton, feels Liverpool should have been given a penalty in the second half of their 3-1 loss at Anfield on Saturday. Will Smallbone gave the Saints an unexpected lead in stoppage time of the first half, but Darin Nunez quickly erased the lead. Mo Salah scored two penalty penalties in the second half to give Liverpool the victory, but Juric thought the first one was unfair. There didn't appear to be much in the area as Smallbone and Nunez collided, but referee Lewis Smith gave the penalty. Juric, the Southampton manager, is furious at Liverpool's penalty call.

Chelsea will once more be thrilled to have the legendary Cole Palmer on their team.
Additionally, Manchester City will be miffed at themselves for letting him go after their Saturday draw with Newcastle.
The Englishman is pulling strings at Stamford Bridge against Brighton to help spark a comeback, just as he has done the entire season.Palmer eventually found his touch with a magnificent hat-trick within ten minutes of hitting the post early in the first half and having a goal disallowed for offside.
After making a last-ditch dash into the area and smashing the ball into an empty net, the 22-year-old earned a penalty and completed a first-half hat-trick with a stunning left-footed free shot from 25 yards out.
He now has the joint most hat-tricks in the Premier League of any Chelsea player with three. Then he made one better move.
Palmer scored an incredible fourth goal in the first half, finishing at the near post after starting inside the penalty box. He is the first Premier League player to accomplish this goal in history.
Palmer has contributed to more goals than he has made appearances for the Blues in the English premier league, which only helps matters more.
