The 43-year-old confused some after he gushed about Thiago Alcântara's "special 17 minutes".
Many pointed out that the Liverpool midfielder, 29, hadn't even scored in the latest match, and neither had his side won.
However, that didn't stop Dan from praising the Spanish professional on the micro-blogging site.
After being called out, the father-of-three responded, addressing their point of view.

The Football Focus presenter had initially tweeted: "In other news... that was a special 17 minutes from Thiago for Liverpool. What a player."
One person quickly urged "come on Dan", as he firmly disagreed with his statement.
The reply read: "I really like Thiago but special 17 minutes sounds like he score 2 and assisted 1 for them to win the game from 2 nil down!
"He played some decent passes which equated to nothing so let’s just calm down yeah."(sic)
"Fair point," Dan responded, before explaining the reason behind his thoughts.
