I also thought the match would be at least a draw but Liverpool couldn't come back with a win despite being even though they were ahead twice. I will especially blame Salah for this, he missed an easy goal and his performance has been a bit down lately. They may not have taken the match seriously after winning the league. Although the match against Brighton is not that important for Liverpool, I think they should have won with them. You are right that losing one or two matches may not hurt them but losing to a weaker team considering their own team's strength can be mentally damaging.
Brighton are fighting for a spot in the European competition next season, so this is a match they need to win which they had to put in all their best performance in the match. The fact that Liverpool do not really need to win this match and take it serious after winning the league title gives an advantage to Brighton to take advantage of the situation, so winning that match wa worth it for them. Liverpool do not really need to be blamed, the players will be going on break soon and you don’t need to put too much pressure on this player in order not to get injured and go to break with injuries.
It has become difficult for Manchester City to maintain the top fifth position in the points table this season, City will face Brownmouth in today's match. If Manchester City fails to collect full points in today's match, they will be deprived of the Champions League ticket for the next season. Forest and Aston Villa are two teams that are trying hard to compete, but City still have a lot of chances if they can win two matches brilliantly. If Manchester City win their match today and win their next match, they will be in fifth position in the points table and will have a chance to qualify for the Champions League for the next season.
Manchester City have not been playing too well and we can’t be so sure of them getting a victory against Bournemouth in this match. They are quite good and winning this match will book them a place in tha champions league next season. They just need to continue with their best effort. They should also know the necessity of this match for Bournemouth as they need it to qualify for an European tournament for next season also. This is a match that cannot be decided easily as both teams look to have the potential of winning the match.
