Seeing the ruthless precision and efficacy with which Jurgen Klopp’s men shredded Sheffield United at Anfield, it would definitely not be presumptuous at all to venture that Liverpool seems to be in darned good stead to win this Premier League when they are pitted against the proverbial \u00a0dark-horse, Everton, on March 14\/15. Of course, this would also mean them winning the title in record time.<\/p>\n
This would be no mean feat considering that the boys who netted the goals, Sadio Mane and Mo Salah, both managed to convincingly penetrate the\u00a0League\u2019s 3rd-best defence in fine form. On the overall, one could only watch in awe and near stupendous disbelief as the Reds weaved their Klopp wizardry and played a game that was almost ridiculously flawless in all aspects with almost 900 passes, 75% ball possession and 19 goal attempts compared to only a feeble 3 by the Blades.<\/p>\n
It is almost a foregone conclusion, rather than a prophecy, that the League\u2019s eventual future champions will be crowned perhaps even much sooner than expected, spelling an end to an agonising 30-year wait for the elusive Premier League crown.\u00a0At the quicksilver speed that Liverpool, Leicester City and Manchester City are amassing their points, the celebratory fireworks could soon be lit up for Jurgen and his merry men by the weekend of 14 and15 March with the ensuing Merseyside derby against Evertonlooming just around the corner at Goodison Park.<\/p>\n
This Herculean feat would in effect slash a full month off the current earliest title win on the record charts. Manchester United was the only team prior to this to win the League with five games to spare with their 4-2 win over Coventry City working in tandem with Arsenal’s defeat to Middlesbrough. In the event that Liverpool \u00a0clinches the win against the Toffees, there would still be eight games left to play. A totally unprecedented, mindblowing achievement if this were to happen, needless to say.<\/p>\n
However, if this were somehow not to materialise, the prophecy would still be self-fulfilling. Should Liverpool secure a win against Manchester City two weeks later at the Etihad, the Reds would still end up in the record books nonetheless for posterity. Regardless of whether one is a Liverpool diehard fan or detractor, it\u2019s only fair and fitting to justifiably admit that this is undeniably the best start that any team has ever had the gumption and ability to achieve in a season. Like it or not, they look most likely to be the League team to be lauded with the sobriquet, the \u201cInvincibles\u201d if they actually succeed in rewriting the history books. Fair is fair, \u2018nuff said!<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
