A confident and composed 3-0 victory at home to Middlesbrough confirmed Liverpool's spot in the top-four. A clear sign of progression for Jurgen Klopp's first full season in charge at the club, and a platform from which summer transfer dealings will likely stem.
With the season now drawn to a close, it's time to...
Another season has been and gone, but unlike so many at Liverpool since they decided to stop winning everything, 2016/17 has left us with a feeling of great warmth.
The Reds’ title challenge may have fizzled out after a very promising first four months, but sealing Champions League qualification has to be seen as...
Get in! That's it Reds, into the Champions League and all the relief that comes with that statement.
It was nervy for a while until Roberto Firmino and Gini Wijnaldum combined for a goal. Coutinho and Lallana added more in the second-half to secure a superb end to the season. Here's how everyone fared individually.

ONE. MORE. WIN. REDS.
Excellent performance, great team selection from Klopp. Liverpool could have fourth wrapped up before Middlesbrough, but that's unlikely. We can still get third, but let's not get carried away just yet.
Simon Mignolet - 6 - Early save from Fernandes set the tone for another good day, wasn't tested too much but...

Once again, I’ve found myself schooled in football fandom over the last nine months. Some lessons I’ve been educated in for the first time, others I’ve shamefully realised should have been taken on board many years ago.

Before kick off, a...
