Bournemouth attacker David Brooks has no complaints about Liverpool's penalty - as he would have gone down too if he was Cody Gakpo.

The Cherries winger does not feel hard done by Darren England's decision to point to the spot after Reds forward Gakpo went to ground under the challenge of Lewis Cook.

Brooks said: "I think obviously you can stand there and blame the referee.



I don't think it was the referee's fault.

I think it is a penalty, it is harsh on Lew [Cook].

"If I was Gakpo in that position I'd go down so yes, I think it's one of them.

Bournemouth have beaten the rest of the top four - Arsenal, Nottingham Forest and Manchester City - at home already this season but Liverpool were a cut-above the rest, according to Brooks.

He added: "I think they were probably the best ones we've played here.

Cherries boss Andoni Iraola was frustrated by the penalty and feels his team were on the wrong side of a tight call.

The Spaniard said: “It's probably a slight touch.

But you don't call one and you call the other, then I have to complain.”

Iraola, who actually stormed down the tunnel at one point late in the game in frustration before swiftly returning to his seat, said on England's performance overall: “When you ask me a lot about the referee, I think in this kind of level of game I think the players are the ones that receive all the comments, all the appreciation, all the value what they've done for from Liverpool, from Bournemouth and that's what I'm going to try to do.”
