It doesn't matter how "theatrical" the fall is. He got kicked on the knee. "Too theatrical" is not a reason not to give the penalty. Definitely Liverpool get that one at the other end.

EVERY cross is a foot behind the striker unlike Liverpool's

Should have booked him
Did they focus on FH on purpose as the commentator said "you can't see the join"?

Ref seems to be quite keen to give decisions their way...
It’s not about theatrics, it’s because he stayed on his feet then chose to fall to the ground with nobody near him. If you prove that you can stay on your feet and aren’t impacted by contact, then why would you get a pen? You get pens because the contact is meant to impede you.

If you take a screenshot of the ref, you'll see he has photographers nightmare....
Red eye, very hard to get rid.

Lucky escape should be 2-0
Should be 2 - Chiesa (?) should really have scored

One team look like Premier League champions. The other team look decidedly mid-table.
Can’t see us keeping hold of Baleba in the summer. He’s far too good. On another level to the rest of our players.
Ref seems very quick to give them a decision.

Ooh, that’ll make a change.
This is true but I absolutely thought dive. Was not natural fall.
This ref is that designer stubbly twat that's everybody's (Top 6) mate. Reliably sub standard.
