In the Premier League, we could have started with Chelsea or Liverpool, but we thought we'd kick things off by wallowing in Stevie's misery.

It's another disappointing performance from Arnaud Slottside, who of course looked so good midweek.

That's the end of that.

Brighton thoroughly deserving of their 2-1 victory.

It wasn't all bad for Liverpool because Chelsea would then lose against Everton.

So what it means is that Liverpool remain one point clear in the race for the Champions League.

But look at Everton now on the chase of their Merseyside rivals.

Seven matches to go.

Liverpool, of course, chasing that place in the Champions League.

Stevie, for those who didn't see the match, how bad were Liverpool today?

Well, I think a mess would sum it up.

You know, and the funny thing is we were laughing over the last couple of days about a Liverpool back because they battered Galatasaray.

And watching this, a Liverpool going backwards, because it reminded me of what we were saying before Christmas.

Liverpool behind, and the slot making all kinds of substitutions, midfielders going to right back, midfielders going to centre back.

I mean, just a mess.

And when this game finished, the team was a complete mess.

Now, some would argue that, and the Slots got to try something, that's how bad they were, that any changes would have made it better.

But as I said, when you look at the team that started,

And then you look at the team that finished and the positions they're all playing in.

This is just a scramble.
