And no mention of it on MOTD. Shock horror.
Yeah a slow motion gif of a crap angle
Is there a MOTD on a Monday night?
Why did williams pull his leg back in then back out to make contact
why did coutinho jump before any contact was made?
Have to agree with the OP here. No need for such an outrageous dive, and whilst I'd rarely wish an injury of a player, karma seems to have done the business here.
Suso resorting to his usual debate approach I see
So you can pull your leg out the way then chuck it back in the way when the player has taken it around you?

Doh. My mistake. Meant MNF.
Point still stands. Coutinho dived. Obviously been watching bit of old school Jürgen Klinsmann videos.
You cant just block peoples run with your leg
He's clearly off balance.
Regardless of that though, it's very clear Coutinho dives like Tom Daley very early, with minimal contact.

no one is saying what williams did is wrong. we are saying coutinho jumped before ashley williams touched him. not really that hard to comprehend.
'when the player has taken it around you?'
if kicking it past and then jumping to the floor is taking it around....
he's learning from the Master Diver CHEAT Steve G.
Off balance, that he sticks a leg out to stopt he other player getting to the ball... thats a foul, cant block peoples runs with your leg cos hey went past you
One RS fan even said he caught him with studs to the chest
World class article.
Looks like Gerrard and Suarez have been giving him some pointers.
It would have been a foul if Coutinho didn't dive before any contact wow you're dumb.
Suso, no one is saying it's not a foul, I believe it is.
Yet how can you say he does dive? Minimal contact, and he looks like he's been shot.
Williams meant to take him out. You could tell by the wry smile he gave after the challenge.

==========================================
And?
That's not the point. The point is Coutinho dived.
If Coutinho doesn't try to make the most of it but doing his olympic impression, he probably won't sustain the injury that he does.
Karma.
williams meant to stop him getting past yes, if coutinho hadn't have jumped he wouldn't have got hurt
From that gif it looks like he's anticipating a foul and dives into it, although I haven't seen any other angles.
Injuring himself while diving.
