What’s the plural of facepalm?

Liverpool lost 3-0 to West Ham on Saturday and apart from the misery that result caused the home fans at Anfield, at least they were treated to a masterclass in comedy from Dejan Lovren.
The centre-half has enjoyed a decent enough start to the season, but it all came crashing down horribly as the Croat forgot the basic rule of any good defender: if in doubt, get it the f**k out.
Liverpool were already losing 1-0 after a Joe Gomez error when Lovren found himself on the touchline trying to defend under pressure from West Ham’s Manuel Lanzini.
He almost did everything right…
And then went and did EVERYTHING wrong…
Simon says get bloody rid of it…
But he recovered well…
Almost perfectly to be fair…
Yes, very bad…
We’re pretty sure he swore, just maybe not in English…
The Twitter reaction was swift and without mercy

Brendan Rodgers checking his notes to see how much he could get for Lovren by Tuesday.

Oh dear Lovren – you're no Ronaldo. No need for the step overs – just pass the ball.
