The heavy defeat by Manchester United at the hands of Liverpool was described by the interim manager as humiliation.
United missed out on the chance to move level with Spurs in the race for a European place.
It's embarrassing, it's disappointing, maybe even humiliating.
He said that they have to accept that they are six years ahead of us.
The club and the city were lifted to a new level by the change in leadership after the arrival of Juergen Klopp. We need that in the next transfer windows.
The hosts once again thrashed United, this time thanks to two goals from Mohamed Salah, who had not scored in eight games.
United has played one more game than Spurs. They are in fifth place, but they have played two fewer games.
The fans do not deserve us to play this way. They need more from us. They deserve more for staying and applauding us. We need to raise our level. Bruno Fernandes told Sky Sports that it is what it is.
We are not ready for the title. I don't need to say that the level is different.
We have to look at ourselves from top to bottom to understand what is going wrong. We are fighting until the end. Nobody can think that it is over. We have something to fight for.
During the match, supporters of both clubs stood up and applauded in support of the family of Manchester United's star player, after the death of his baby boy.
The emphatic victory took the side two points clear of the defending champion Manchester City, who will face the Seagulls on Wednesday.
The Reds have already won a trophy this season, the Carabao Cup, and are in the running for more.
This latest display made them the first club to score at least eight goals against United in a single season, as the manager and his players have repeated the need to take one game at a time.
All fans are smart and know that it doesn't happen often. They received a lot of joy tonight.
I enjoyed it tonight. I don't expect us to be in control of the game for 95 minutes, but for 70 minutes we were in charge and they caused us problems.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Souness said that the team was on the verge of greatness.
He said that the game was the biggest in English football and that United had made poor footballing decisions in the past.
More to come.
