these players are legends in the making, too early to be conferred legend status.

if together they can win the PL title another few times then they will become legends.

for now Klopp is the legend, without Klopp these players would not be performing at their best!

Klopp n Co. should maintain the Anfield fortress and home record.

Maybe better question for now, which of the above mentioned players are world class?

Obvious choices would be Alisson, VVD, Mane and Salah.

I think Trent, Henderson, Fabinho and Firmino are just one level below. Another possibility is Keita but all depends on whether he remains fit.

Oh and agreed, the only true legend at the moment is Klopp. I think he is an even better manager than King Kenny was at his best. People need to realise that Klopp not only defeated the richest club in the world, he did this with a net spend of only £80m. Incredible achievement.

Also must once again give great credit to John W Henry and FSG for pulling us out of the dark abyss.

Which records have Liverpool set or matched?
Biggest lead at the top
Liverpool have had a 25-point lead this season, the biggest ever in English top-flight history.

Most home wins in a row
Liverpool's 3-2 victory over West Ham United on 24 February was their 21st consecutive Premier League home win, beating Man City's record of 20, achieved between 2011 and 2012.

They went on to extend this record to 24 with wins over AFC Bournemouth, Crystal Palace and Aston Villa at Anfield.

Earliest title win
By claiming the title with seven matches to spare Liverpool beat the mark set of becoming champions with five matches remaining, set by Manchester United in 2000/01, and Man City in 2017/18.

Most points won over 38 matches
With their 1-0 win at Tottenham Hotspur on 11 January, Liverpool set a record of 104 points from 38 Premier League matches, beating the 102 achieved by Manchester City and Chelsea, ending in 2018 and 2005 respectively.

Liverpool extended their record to 110 points from 38 matches (W36 D2 L0) after beating West Ham United 3-2 in February.

Fastest to 30 wins
The 3-1 victory at Brighton & Hove Albion on 8 July was the Reds' 30th this season, and they achieved that mark in a Premier League record of 34 matches.

Best start ever
When Liverpool reached 61 points from their opening 21 matches, it was the most a team had ever accumulated at that stage in any of Europe's top five leagues.

They went on to extend their record, winning their following six fixtures to rack up 79 points from their first 27 matches before losing at Watford.

Most home wins in a season
Liverpool's 5-3 victory over Chelsea means they joined the Blues, Man Utd and Man City in winning 18 home matches in a Premier League season.

Which records can Liverpool target?
Most victories in a season
Liverpool have 31 and need to win their final match at Newcastle United to equal the 32 victories claimed by Man City in 2017/18 and in 2018/19.

Biggest winning margin
Liverpool have an 18-point lead and could yet equal or beat Man City's record winning margin of 19 points in 2017/18.

All 4 cups for Liverpool, could not be more proud of the whole Liverpool team.

Sorry, Bro, not exactly true.

After the first game, Liverpool were third, even though they won 4-1 against Norwich.
The two Manchester clubs were ahead on goal difference.
But from the second game onwards, they were first all the way.

Klopp loves Reds’ story but “it’s not finished yet” as he plots improvement

Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp wants his Premier League champions to be even more uncomfortable to play against next season.

Prior to March’s lockdown the Reds had taken 82 points – more than second-placed Manchester City will reach if they win on Sunday – from 29 matches with just one defeat and one draw to virtually guarantee a first title in 30 years.

Wednesday’s 5-3 victory over Chelsea made it three seasons unbeaten at home in the league, but as they head into their final match of the campaign at Newcastle with an 18-point gap at the top, Klopp is expecting more from his players.

“We will not change: we try to improve. Is is possible to improve it for a longer period? I would say yes,” he said.

“We make a cut when the season is finished on Sunday, enjoy it, be happy, and then mid-August we start training again and from that moment on we will try it again with all we have and nothing will hold us back.

“It is a really nice story the boys have written over the years but it is not finished yet – we decide when it is finished.

“I want to see us fighting for whatever the next trophy is, fighting on the pitch and enjoying the hard work and as long as we do that we have a good chance.

“First thing, as always, is to be a team no one wants to play against. I think we are like this but we can be more uncomfortable.”

Sunday will bring to a close 14 remarkable months which have seen Liverpool win the Champions League, UEFA Super Cup, Club World Cup and Premier League.

Klopp admits last summer’s victory in Madrid over Tottenham, coming 12 months after losing the Champions League final to Real Madrid, was the turning point.

“That doesn’t make it easier but it gives you the proof that it is possible,” he added.

“As we all know, I am a specialist in coming second so that needs some mental strength to try it again and try it again and if you open the box of Pandora then that helps massively.

“I could see that when we won the Champions League last year made all the other things happen, plus the season we played before: 97 points and then we won the Champions League was really a special year.

“When you are that close you have to invest more and then get over the line and that is exactly what happened.

“We will stay greedy, we have to and we will. But if that then leads automatically to more trophies I don’t know because other teams have other reasons to make the next step and how we saw again on Wednesday night, the distance between us and Chelsea is not 30-odd points: that night it was two goals and a tricky moment when Pulisic missed the target.”

A 31st victory of the season on Wednesday lifted Liverpool’s points tally to 96, a number synonymous at the club with the Hillsborough tragedy in terms of how many fans lost their lives in the 1989 disaster.

I agreed too.

Similar to BVB., he retained the German league after winning.

So long his players hungry for success and playing to win with monster mentality then can be consistent.

Liverpool had been consistent and the rest of the teams didn't especially MC which played poorly.

Last season Liverpool with 97 points didn't win and now with 1 game to play already accumulated 96 points which proves consistency.

Hopefully Klopp can plot the team to be unpredictable in playing. I hope more players can change roles or wings so that there will be unpredictable.

Hopefully Trent will score more free kicks and can tell he had been working hard with his free kicks.

So long Liverpool dun lose star players baring injury next season then should be a good season.

[francined69]

i can only imagine players that left LFC in recent years to pursue higher goals, and the look on their faces now.

Sterling, Coutinho, Can

[francined69]

starting eleven for today's match against Newcastle.

[francined69]

Final score Newcastle 1 - Liverpool 3

Final Table for 2019/20 season

[escobar43535]

What an utterly incredible season, 99 points; following on from 97 points. That is 29 dropped points in 2 seasons. 5 more than the invincibles of Arsenal in that one season

196 points over two seasons is just absolutely sensational. Unbelievable.

Just goes to show how incredibly good this team is.

We go again next season more of the same please.

Proud of the reds !!

As an aside, I think the Brodge has done brilliant with Leicester. However, serious questions will be asked of his mentality again. That Leicester-United match was like a replica of our game against Chelsea 6 years ago.
