Another clash over VAR in the Premier League this weekend. At least one club is upset about the decision made by the video assistant referees who have gone against them right now, and it appears we won't get through a series of top-flight fixtures without at least one team getting mad about them.

There is a lot of pressure on the officials to make the major decisions right in the most dramatic Premier League relegation battle in recent years. The weeks ahead will determine whether they're up for the challenge. Many people will recall it if a refereeing mistake cost Arsenal or Manchester City the title, but it won't make a difference to either team's financial situation or their employees' livelihoods. That is not the case in the relegation fight, where dropping into the Championship means losing out on hundreds of millions of pounds in television income. Competence is the minimum that these clubs can hope for.

TOM COLLOMOSSE AT MOLINEUX: In the most exciting Premier League relegation contest in recent years, there is a lot of pressure on the officials to make the right decisions. If they are up to the challenge, the weeks ahead will determine if they are up for the challenge.

GRAEME SOUNESS: I only had to step out onto the streets of Newcastle on any day of the week to understand the obsession with football and the incredible load of anticipation in that region. I don't believe there is a city in the United Kingdom where you'd see as many people out sporting the local team's colours when the team wasn't even playing. It never failed to awe me. When I took over in 2004, I was like all the bosses before and after me, and I was thinking, 'If you get this right, what an amazing football team this could be.' However, managers didn't stay at the club for very long. In terms of getting everyone rowing in the same direction, it was a challenging place to work. You're just one game away from being irreversibly wrong. You should have a good run, but if you're losing a game, everything changes dramatically.

TOM COLLOMOSSE: January is often a time when clubs lose their heads, but Wolves dove hard and are reaping the rewards, with one contract looking particularly shrewd. Craig Dawson's arrival at Molineux for just £3.3 million went unnoticed when the 32-year-old player came from West Ham, Wolves, won victories over Liverpool and Southampton, but moved five points clear of the relegation zone.

Craig Dawson, who was involved in the second goal and was integral to his team's victory over the remainder of the game, was lauding the Wolves' revival under new manager Julen Loegui. The fact that he was not surprised that a team that came close to completing an unprecedented quadruple last season should have taken such a beating gives another tale, as far as Merseyside is concerned.

AT MOLINEUX: RIATH AL-SAMARRAI: There have been a few moments in this most brutal descent down the mountain where it has been necessary to wonder how exactly it came to this for Liverpool. On Saturday, one such occurrence occurred in stoppage time. When the Wolves backline turned possession around him in a blur of one-touch cruelty, it was embedded in the sight of Mo Salah chasing shadows alone. Each passing day came the 'ole' taunt from around Molineux, and there were several good four or five of those. If it happened to any of Salah's coworkers to join the hunt, let's not assume it was not immediately apparent.

Alan Shearer has chastised Joel Matip for Liverpool's poor showing against Wolves on Saturday. Matip's own goal was the first of three goals conceded at Molineux, with Craig Dawson and Ruben Neves leading to a 3-0 win for the hosts.

After the'misery' of Liverpool's 3-0 thrashes at Wolves, Jurgen Klopp ordered a prompt change from his wretched players in time for the Merseyside derby. Wolves 2-0 upbeat inside 12 minutes before Ruben Neves struck Liverpool with their third straight away loss in 11 years, with an own goal and a Craig Dawson assist. Klopp was furious after yet another slow start, admitting that he had 'no words' to explain the results in a tense press conference in which he refused to answer questions from a journalist with a long history of covering Liverpool.

And breathe. The January transfer window is over, and managers now know exactly what they're doing for the remainder of the season. The mid-season window can be a little anti-climatic, with clubs choosing to stick with what they've got rather than risking any disruptions to their squad for the second half of the season. This wasn't the case this time, with Chelsea, Arsenal, Manchester United, and Tottenham all doing major business on deadline day. But did they spend their money wisely?Which sides look well-placed to finish the campaign strongly, and who has left themselves short?
