Steven Gerrard was critical of Manchester City's new star left-back Benjamin Mendy on Saturday evening, after the Frenchman mocked Brighton's Lewis Dunk for scoring an own goal.

Dunk, who captained Brighton for the visit of Pep Guardiola's side, headed through his own net to give City an unassailable 2-0 lead in the 75th minute.

Mendy joined Man City from Monaco in a £52m move this summer, but was forced to watch the match on television.

The 23-year-old, who was not fit enough to be included in Pep Guardiola's matchday squad, celebrated the goal on Twitter, mocking Dunk's finish at the wrong end.
