Liverpool are back to winning ways and, after the most disappointing of starts to the Premier League season, they bounced back in record-breaking style at Anfield on Saturday.
AFC Bournemouth were the unlucky visitors on the receiving end of the Reds’ record Premier League win as they ran out emphatic 9-0 winners. In truth, it could so easily have been more.
Luis Diaz and Harvey Elliott had Jurgen Klopp ’s side 2-0 up inside just six minutes, before goals from Trent Alexander-Arnold, Roberto Firmino and Virgil van Dijk made it a five-goal lead at the break. A Chris Mepham own goal made it six shortly after the restart before the South American pair sandwiched Fabio Carvalho’s maiden Liverpool goal as they both claimed braces.
