'Everybody's celebrating here like they've won the league!': Paul Merson pours cold water on Liverpool's title chances after win at Arsenal as he insists Man City are still favourites... but Graeme Souness hits back and says his money would be on the Reds

Paul Merson has slammed Liverpool's celebrations after their 2-0 win over Arsenal, as he insists Manchester City are still in control of the Premier League title race.
