Saido Berahino will be thankful West Brom didn't have too much to play for at home to Watford.

The England Under-21 international saw *two* penalties saved by Hornets goalkeeper Heurelho Gomes as his team suffered a 1-0 home defeat, making him only the third player in Premier League history to achieve that dubious honour. Weirdly, though, he wasn't the first to do so against the Brazilian goalkeeper. https://twitter.com/InfostradaLive/status/721365356636409856

Berahino has been a divisive figure, despite his obvious talent, and a backlash was always going to be inevitable after his latest faux pas.

But West Brom fans weren't the only ones feeling let down by the 22-year-old.

He might not get the big-money move for which he was touted, if Tottenham fans have anything to do with it.

At least some saw the funny side.

And remember, however bad it gets, it can always be worse.
