Michael Owen criticises Liverpool trio for their part in Bournemouth winner

Michael Owen has ripped into Liverpool's defending which led to Bournemouth's shock winner at the weekend.

Phillip Billing scored the only goal of the game to send Liverpool crashing back down to earth, following the highs of their 7-0 victory over bitter rivals Manchester United a week prior.

The result dented Liverpool's hopes of finishing inside the top-four, which extended to six points thanks to Tottenham's convincing victory over Nottingham Forest - albeit, the Reds have a game-in-hand.

Former Reds fan favourite Owen has hit out at three players for their parts in allowing Bournemouth to score.
