The young Frenchman has been taking a lot of stick recently about that dive against Birmingham last Monday.

Are Liverpool FC in danger of becoming Leeds United?
Here's the latest thoughts from Reds fans group Spirit of Shankly.

A SLIGHT despondency seems to have set in amongst the Reds ranks in the last couple of weeks.
Fans who were generally positive in Jun and July now have a sombre look about them and there is the odd muttering about difficult times ahead.
Not that pre-season form is much of an indicator, but there has been a lack of cohesive form in most of Liverpool's friendlies in recent months.
Most worryingly for me, all thoughts of signing one more top class attacking player seems to have gone out the window as attentions have suddenly turned to finding a fourth-in-line centre half.

£20m down, £10m left.
Liverpool moved quick to replace Xabi Alonso, even if £20m for an injury prone Italian centre midfielder seemed very pricey.
But we've got £10m left over and money in the bank from the sales of Arbeloa, Leto, other peripherals, hopefully Dossena, and maybe one or two others.
So, what's the priorities for everybody?

I'm going to make a case for Voronin.
You'll have to have to bear with me here.

SO, £17m for a full back?
And one from Portsmouth who is hardly a regular full international with 30+ international caps under his belt?
It seems a hell of a lot of money to pay.

I THOUGHT we would have a disinterested air for this game, the league title having been sown up the previous day by United drawing with Arsenal.
But all thoughts of any Liverpool apathy was dispelled by the sight of Carragher and Arbeloa coming to blows in front of baying Albion fans.

I HAD this game down as a tricky one in the title challenge run-in.
As it transpired, this was as pleasant a stroll as we've had in many a season down in East London.

IT'S BEEN a while since a league home game at Anfield has been looked forward to with such little anticipation.
Defeat to Middlesborough, following on from the draw against Man City the week before, had knocked all the fight of every fan alike, it seemed.

It's been a colourful old week in the life of Liverpool FC.
If we haven't been talking about dodgy chants on the terraces, it's been the Benitez new deal wrangle or the race at the top of the Premiership.
Crickey. That last one was actually about football.
