It's Liverpool's best chance to win the Premier League in a decade
In 2008/09, Liverpool had an amazing run, starting March 2, with 10 wins in 11 games and a Raised 31 points of a possible. 33. Along the way, they humiliated Manchester United 4-1 at Old Trafford after falling from 1 to 0.
The fact that United ended up winning the league by four points shows how far they have advanced Reds. before this break-in. Alex Ferguson was after the total of 18 trophies of the Liverpool league. In 2009, United was 16.
As he had so often done before, Ferguson rallied the troops. After this 4-1 defeat at Old Trafford, United has won their next seven games in a row. They won the title 17 with a draw 0-0 at home
Job done.
Four points back but he could just as easily have 40. Another season without the return of the league trophy at Merseyside. Xabi Alonso, Steven Gerrard, Fernando Torres, Pepe Reina, Sami Hyppia, Jamie Carragher, Robbie Keane, Javier Mascherano and Yossi Benayoun in the team but they were as close as they would have been.
Liverpool, inspired by Luis Suarez and a Daniel Sturridge in good shape, went closer in 2013/14. Brendan Rodgers seemed to be able to deliver what Rafa Benitez could not – put an end to a drought that had lasted since 1990.
Everything collapsed with a home defeat against Jose Mourinho's Chelsea and a draw 3-3 with Crystal Palace. City ended up winning the league by two points. In the seasons since 2013/14, Liverpool finished 8th, 6th, 4th and 3rd.
Jurgen Klopp's team may have ended behind City and United, but she appeared to be the only team able to beat Pep Guardiola's champions. In the league and the Champions League, Klopp sent his team feverishly defeating City and exposing his backline with pace, numbers and daring.
Liverpool was beaten by reaching the final of the Champions League in Kiev, but Mo Salah and Loris The two small mistakes of Karius – shortly after being shaken by Sergio Ramos – saw Real Madrid s 39 ;impose.
In 2018-2019, Liverpool fans say what they say for 28 years: chances next season "- but they have every right to believe these words.
This time next year …
First of all, Klopp solved a problem that dragged Liverpool for four years. He brought Loris Karius to Anfield, and supported him in public, but the German little believed that he was the long-term solution. Klopp and Liverpool paid the ultimate price in Kiev to persevere with two goalkeepers – Karius and Simon Mignolet – all season.
Klopp was interested in bringing Alisson Becker ahead of Karius goaltenders on the biggest stage of club football. The Roma felt that they could demand more when negotiations finally started. Liverpool started with an offer of just under £ 50m while the Italians wanted £ 90m. They got closer to the Reds at £ 62.5m (with some performance and club add-ons).
Rejecting the painful fact that Becker was offered to Liverpool for £ 4m four years ago, when he was at Internacional, the Merseysiders at least got a quality shooter, a shrewd dealer and, most importantly, a confident player and insured.
Naby Keita was already tied up before the summer but Liverpool seems to have recovered well. Only the most convinced fans can claim to have seen tons of Keita footage, but reports from football writers based in Germany suggest that Klopp has signed another tireless tyro. He should well integrate and provide some legs alongside Jordan Henderson and Fabinho, Monaco's £ 43.7m signing.
Xherdan Shaqiri was signed for the price of £ 10m relatively cheap and is a game that is worth being caught. He is as capable of pure magic as drifting out of games for long periods, but he has looked in top shape for Switzerland in the World Cup and has delivered a rake of big crosses and balloons.

Dejan Lovren will return to turn World Cup with Croatia with a newfound confidence but it will be interesting to see if Klopp has the same opinion. For all his fierce competition abilities, it is commonly accepted in football that Lovren is never far from a costly mistake.
Gary Neville says that most of the best defenders, if they play more than 40 games per season, will be at fault for four goals. Frustrating for Reds fans, Lovren can often do 10 or 12 games without making a mistake before squeezing them both in a few weekends.
Harry Maguire might be a good option to join Virgil van Dijk at the defense center but his prize will have climbed to about 10 million pounds after his World Cup performances for England. Sturridge is back in shape and featured in pre-season games, but another striking option, replacing Salah, deserves to be considered too. Nabil Fekir can still arrive from Lyon while Juventus star Paulo Dybala has also been linked.
To push City – the clear favorites – to close next season, Liverpool will need some men already on the books to follow their impressive free time outings. Mo Salah refused surgery on his shoulder to play for Egypt at the World Cup and is already back and burned fitness tests at Melwood. He will look to surpbad his 2017-2018 winners but even though he can supply 80%, Liverpool will be well placed.
The others who need to push, and who are more than capable of doing it, are Sadio Mané [the club's newest No.10] and the young back Trent Alexander Arnold
You remember those players of 39; 10 years ago – Alonso, Gerrard, Torres, Reina, Hyppia, Carragher, Keane, Mascherano – and you wonder how they have ever United won a title even once
L & 39 Team 2018/19 – Salah, Firmino, Alison, Robertson, Fabinho, Keita, Henderson, Dijk van, Alexander-Arnold, Mané, Shaqiri – has the potential to go from the front. further. It's just that Liverpool fans are beginning to believe.
