In a season of such rollercoaster emotions. there are two standout results that could yet prove pivotal in helping Liverpool achieve their minimum target of Champions League qualification come the end of May.
The most recent - how could it not? - came on Sunday, when the Reds racked up a record-breaking 7-0 victory over bitter North West rivals Manchester United to move within touching distance of the top four.
On the road, meanwhile, was a 2-1 victory at Tottenham Hotspur back in November, ending the long wait for a first away Premier League win of the season just a week after the dismal home reverse to struggling Leeds United.
