Liverpool lose, Saints go marching down – and not even KDB can save dour derby

Start listening

Jimbo’s got Matt Davies-Adams, Daniel Storey and Tim Spiers alongside him for a deep-dive into all the weekend’s Premier League action.

We struggled to stay awake through a thoroughly underwhelming goalless Manchester derby – but at least there’s time to talk about Kevin De Bruyne being special.

Liverpool’s recent struggles continued as they were beaten 3-1 at Fulham with the help of some calamitous defending – is their season at risk ending on a sour note even if/ when they lift the Premier League trophy?

Southampton were finally put out of their misery – becoming the first team ever to be relegated from the Premier League with seven games to spare. Elias Burke was at the Tottenham Stadium to see Spurs flatter to deceive again despite their 3-1 win.

Wolves are all but mathematically safe and Vítor Pereira’s out on the town, Palace v Brighton was ill-disciplined but good fun indeed – and is Mikel Arteta really the hottest manager in the top flight?

Plus, we preview the huge midweek Champions League clashes that await Arsenal and Aston Villa, with Real Madrid and PSG lying in wait in their quarterfinal first legs.
