    I see Alli has received his 3rd booking for diving.

    Since his debut Premier League season in 2015-16; no player has received more.

    Yeah, he really needs to get better at it, doesn't he?
    How many's Vardy on, by the way? I'm assuming that there's someone level with Alli, as it would say "more than any other player" otherwise.

    Off the top of my head, Vardy's only booking came in the game against West Ham when Moss sent him off.

    Good old Mossy! <laugh>
    I can't seem to find a list, which is a bit odd. There's normally stats for everything.
    If Ashley Young's not up there, then there's definitely something wrong with it.

    Yeah I've had a good look and I can't find one.

    I would be surprised if Young has had three in that time frame.

    He had a spell where he was throwing himself on the floor every week but he seems to have learnt his lesson in recent years.

    I would guess that Sanchez would be up there.

    You're going with divers, rather than those that actually get booked for it, I think.
    Most refs just pretend that nothing's happened and wave it on, annoyingly.

    Yeah the stat is bookings for diving.

    I suppose the people who dive the most are Alli, Sanchez, Sane and Zaha.

    Vardy, Young, Vardy, Herrera, Vardy, everyone that plays for Arsenal and Vardy, for me. Oh, and Alli.

    Been watching Vardy every week for about 6 years now and I've still never seen him fall over thin air.

    Any thickness of air is ok for Vardy flight (even no air) .

    Referee Jon Moss was "misguided" when he asked fourth official Martin Atkinson if he had "anything from TV" during Tottenham's draw with Liverpool on Sunday, the Professional Game Match Officials Limited (PGMOL) says.

    Moss was captured on camera speaking to Atkinson via his headset before awarding Spurs a penalty.

    Harry Kane was felled by Reds goalkeeper Loris Karius, and Moss sought to clarify if he was offside.

    Video assistant referee (VAR) was not in operation at Anfield.

    "For the avoidance of doubt, Atkinson did not view a television monitor and did not relay any information to the on-field officials," PGMOL said in a statement.

    More to follow.
