Steven Gerrard slaughtered his schoolboy defenders after the 2-1 defeat from Kilmarnock.
The Liverpool legend dropped George Edmundson to reunite Nikola Katic with Connor Goldson but watched that partnership collapse in the closing minutes.
Katic was posted missing as Eamonn Brophy shrugged aside the presence of Goldson before drilling a low diagonal shot across Allan McGregor into the net.

That’s absolute schoolboy defending, you can’t win anything at this level of football with defending like that
Goldson was a £2m signing from Brighton in the summer of 2018 and was joined by Croatian u-21 star Katic who cost £1m from Slaven Bulupo. Edmundson was a £700,000 signing last summer from Oldham.
After watching his side beat Stranraer 2-0 Gerrard claimed that he had been bored by the game.
Following the defeat from bottom of the table Hearts at the start of the month he claimed that his side had eight passengers and questioned if his squad had the bottle to challenge Celtic.
Since the turn of the year the Ibrox club have dropped eight points in the SPFL Premiership and now trail Celtic by 10 points.
On Saturday Gerrard will have to lift his schoolboy defenders for the visit of Livingston to Ibrox.
