Milner sent off by his old teacher!

Referee John Moss taught the Liverpool midfielder at Westbrook Lane Primary School in Leeds, according to a picture that has gone viral on social media. The Premier League has confirmed the picture to be genuine, and shows a young Milner seated in a team photo clutching a football. Moss, the coach of the team, is standing beside the youngsters with his hands behind his back.

Milner's sending off came as a result of a second yellow card for a late challenge on Wilfried Zaha in the closing stages of Saturday's encounter with Crystal Palace. It means he will miss Liverpool's next match against Leicester
