Crystal Palace midfielder Jordon Mutch has been at the center of a number of tweets from club supporters, after liking a post on Instagram from an account called ‘liverpoolgoal’.
The video in which the player liked was a video of Roberto Firmino celebrating his goal, the fourth of the evening for the visitors to Selhurst Park, in a game that Liverpool came away as 4-2 winners.
A number of users on Twitter slated the midfielder who is has featured for the Eagles on only three occasions this season, two of which came in the EFL Cup where Alan Pardew’s side were knocked out by Southampton.

Understandably though, there is the view point of people who thought that it was a little bit petty by having a go at Jodon Mutch for liking a video of a goal, in a sport which he likes, enjoys and plays.

Twitter: I don’t get the hate over @jordonmutch rn.
Even if he did do it intentionally, so what? Peer appreciation in football happens a lot. (@jonnyjkyle)
The 24-year-old did respond to the criticism received by some fans however, even though it could be said that he could have said nothing at all instead of adding wood to the fire:
