‘The season is finished’, ‘there’s nothing left to play for’, ‘can we skip to next season?’ Plenty of Liverpol fans have been thinking along these lines in recent weeks.
Of course, the campaign is far from over and there is still a trophy left to play for - the Champions League to be specific.

This Premier League campaign has been a shocker so far for Reds. After 20 games played, they find themselves in 10th place with seven top flight defeats on the board all while failing to defend the FA Cup and Carabao Cup they won back in May.
