Michael Owen 'knew' Liverpool were going to win by a 'big score' against Bournemouth

Michael Owen knew it was going to be a "big one" when Liverpool started banging in the goals against Bournemouth at Anfield on Saturday afternoon with all of the players "hungry" for goals.

Liverpool went into the lead after three minutes through Luis Diaz and found themselves 5-0 up at half-time, with Mohamed Salah not getting himself on the scoresheet despite being handed a great chance by Harvey Elliott.

Salah once again blazed over the bar from close range in the second half as Liverpool surged to a record-equalling 9-0 win in the Premier League to get their first three points of the new season.
