Mauricio Pochettino has questioned why Liverpool faced little criticism in the wake of their loss to Arsenal, after his Chelsea were scrutinised after being thrashed at Anfield last week.

The under-fire Chelsea boss made the comparison ahead of Chelsea's FA Cup fourth round replay against Aston Villa on Wednesday.

Pochettino suggested Liverpool's 3-1 loss away at Arsenal was similar to the Blues 3-1 defeat at Anfield last Wednesday.

The Argentine claimed the results received a different reaction, with the Reds seeming to escape scrutiny.

'When the expectation is different to the reality, it's difficult,' Pochettino said.
