You probably won't believe me but I had the idea for this article way before the Arsenal game. I had even started gathering the stats from the different sites before the game started. The article was due last Thursday but I decided to postpone it for this week so I get a sample size...
45 minutes into the match, and apart from Coutinho's rip-roaring wonder strike (another one), and a squandered chance for Firmino, it seemed a drab affair for Liverpool, against current relegation favourites: Swansea City.

First of all, I appreciate there will be two instant reactions to this. The first is: he’s not...
Liverpool's entertaining 3-3 draw away at Arsenal on Friday evening was definitely one for the neutral - but not if you're a Reds supporter and have any regard whatsoever for the health of your heart.
A topsy-turvy game saw the visitors race into a two-goal lead which seemed unassailable at the time, with the Reds...
It took some doing for Liverpool to best their most ridiculous performance of the season, but somehow they managed to do it.
