In any other era of football history, a 97 point haul in the league would guarantee the league title. Unfortunately for Liverpool, this is the era of Manchester City and their state-sponsored, law-flouting spending and their club record points tally wasn’t sufficient to claim the clubs first league since the 1989-90 season.

And then there was one. One last Sunday to say our prayers and hope Manchester City open the door for Liverpool. It had been eight straight wins since a 0-0 draw at Goodison left just enough slack for City to overtake The Reds. The consensus was then that we would have to win out....
Liverpool roared back to the top of the Premier League with a superb 2-0 win over Chelsea. What ended up being a reasonably even game on paper was nevertheless one that Liverpool controlled from start to finish, and thoroughly deserved to win.

Pipping award ceremony regular Cristiano Ronaldo, who was ironically missing from this particular iteration of the event, and Mohamed Salah to the gong after a champions league winning...
Daniel Sturridge scored one of his finest career goals to earn Liverpool a late point at Stamford Bridge.
Eden Hazard’s first-half strike had given Chelsea a lead that they preserved with comfort for much of the game, Mohamed Salah and his substitute Xherdan Shaqiri missing the Reds’ most glorious chances before Sturridge struck.
Klopp opted to...
Daniel Sturridge. Daniel Sturridge. Daniel Sturridge. If you're a Liverpool fan, the 1-1 draw against Chelsea should leave you with no other thoughts in your head. What. A. Goal. I'm going to spend my next two days exclusively watching that goal over and over again. If you aren't, I'm judging you.

Personally, I love a hypothetical within the realms of football. They allow one to examine the possibilities and justify why their selection would be viable. Of course, these hypotheticals can border on the edges of insanity, almost irrelevance i.e. Which footballer would be able to the most kick-ups with a live chicken? (probably Leo...
