Liverpool lost the Merseyside derby but Everton supporter chants are wrong about Jurgen Klopp's team
The last of his 19 games against Everton saw his Liverpool side deliver one of their worst performances in the fixture at precisely the wrong time to effectively end hopes of becoming Premier League champions.
But the reality is there are too few games and too much momentum with Arsenal and Manchester City for Klopp’s side to have anything but the remotest of chances of claiming the title. That chant, of course, is not strictly true. Instead, this is a title challenge that has slowly ebbed away ever since Liverpool returned from the international break a month ago, the monumental efforts of a new-look team to continue challenging for a quadruple amid a relentless injury crisis ultimately catching up with them.
Not that it makes this dire defeat any easier to take. Having not won a home derby in approaching 14 years, the law of averages suggested Everton – buoyed by easing their long-held relegation fears – were due a victory. Liverpool can’t avoid defeat every time.
