The Liverpool legend trolled Man United winger Ashley Young live on air as the panel discussed Louis van Gaal’s team selection for today’s game against West Brom.
Young was at the centre of another diving storm during the week when he appeared to go down easily during the Champions League game against CSKA Moscow.
It’s not the first time the England international has come under-fire for simulation with Roy Keane called Young ‘an absolute disgrace.’
Thompson wasted little time in having a dig at Young by calling him Tom Daley. The same Tom Daley who has won European, World and Olympic diving medals.
“They should be playing Tom Daley on the left, sorry I meant Ashley Young,” Thompson said on Sky Sports.
He insisted it was an honest mistake but we’re not entirely convinced.
