Liverpool more than earned their Anfield reception, even though the title ultimately went to Manchester City. Here are three things seen in the lap of ...

Manchester City, though, don’t have a Champions League final to look forward to — and that was the Liverpool message. This time, she was joined by plenty of others during the walk as she netted to several cheers in front of the Liverpool crowd. Liverpool still have one more game to play, of course — the Champions League final next weekend — and they already have two trophies that have been added to the cabinet.

Liverpool can still crown best Jürgen Klopp season but Ibrahima ... (Liverpool.com)

The Good, Bad and Ugly: Liverpool made Jürgen Klopp proud once again with a battling Wolves win after an Ibrahima Konaté error, but it wasn't quite enough.

The cruelty of the comeback was made somewhat more bearable by the fact that it had been completed before Liverpool had managed to establish a lead of their own. It’s never exactly the ideal opening to a game, but given the circumstances, it was shocking. For a long time, it looked as though Manchester City would slip up, only for Liverpool to fail to capitalise. As such, going behind within a matter of minutes was the definition of a bad start. Who knows if that information would even have reached the pitch at the Etihad? It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but Klopp will know that his team have done him proud. Winning it would have been almost literally unbelievable, but becoming champions of Europe next weekend would crown the best campaign in living memory — and certainly the best under Klopp.

Double Liverpool snub proves Pep Guardiola completely wrong as ... (Liverpool.com)

When votes were cast for the Premier League Player of the Season award, Salah remained the division's top scorer and creator, despite the 'decline'. And yet, ...

It’s also worth noting that De Bruyne was Premier League Player of the Season in 2019/20 despite Liverpool’s glaring supremacy, while Foden has now won Young Player of the Season back-to-back. Only twice in Premier League history has a player led both tables outright — Andy Cole in 1993/94 and Harry Kane in 2020/21. It seems that recency bias has played a large part in De Bruyne’s success. Salah’s goal in the 2-2 draw against Chelsea on 2 January took him to 23 for the season, in addition to his 10 assists. Better than Salah? It’s important to stress the rarity of a player topping both the goals and assists charts. Midway through the current campaign, he looked like he might just be able to challenge those numbers.

Liverpool fans thought they'd won Premier League title after false ... (Daily Mail)

In the 85th minute at Anfield, it appears somebody started a false rumour that Steven Gerrard's side had made it 3-3 and the Reds were bound for glory.

It came just seconds after Salah thought he'd scored the goal to win Liverpool the league title, only for a fan in the crowd to inform him that City were 3-2 up. It all ended up in frustration for the Liverpool fans as City snatched the Premier League title Celebrating Liverpool fans thought they'd won the Premier League title after a FALSE RUMOUR spread around Anfield that Aston Villa had made it 3-3 at Manchester City... with Takumi Minamino urging them to calm down and Virgil van Dijk looking furious!

Liverpool left to look back on what-ifs as fine margins define Premier ... (ESPN)

Liverpool just came up short as Man City won the Premier League title again. But for Jurgen Klopp's men it's all about the what-ifs.

It is Liverpool's misfortune to be enjoying their peak years under Klopp at the same time City are collecting trophies under Guardiola. Over the last four years, Liverpool have won one title and finished runners-up behind City twice -- with 92 points this season and 97 in 2018-19. "There are worse scenarios -- we could have been a point ahead [on the final day] and not made it -- but we don't feel good. "I would have preferred they [City] were 5-0 up after 10 minutes so we could just play out game, but the season was close, so close. By the time Mohamed Salah managed to put Liverpool ahead on 84 minutes, City had already turned defeat into victory by scoring three times in five minutes through Gundogan (twice) and Rodri. It was the same story at home to Brighton in October, when 2-0 became 2-2, that time after being two goals clear after 24 minutes. LIVERPOOL, England -- There are always what-ifs when a team gets so close to glory.

“We got the win and the points, but it wasn’t enough. He recorded 20 clean sheets in 36 appearances for the Reds this season to earn the trophy alongside City No.1 and Brazil international team-mate Ederson. We were really focused on doing our job.

Liverpool can get Kylian Mbappé transfer boost as Lionel Messi heir ... (Liverpool.com)

Liverpool look like the biggest losers from the Kylian Mbappé saga, but it may hand FSG a free transfer chance for a man with a claim to Lionel Messi's ...

Sure enough, the French prodigy is lacking in terms of goal output (both expected and actual). But in almost every other respect, he has similar elite-level characteristics. Dembélé could yet price out Liverpool in a similar manner. But it would still appear to be a stretch for them to make a move for Ousmane Dembélé, who looked a lot like he was the Mbappé fallback plan. For a player with such an impressive profile, it may well be considered a risk worth taking. Yet the Argentine will still be there, along with Neymar and (for now) Mauro Icardi. It is a well-stocked front line. Even Naby Keïta has been able to put his troubles behind him since the appointment of Doctor Andreas Schlumberger in late 2020.

'Story of my life': Klopp woe as Liverpool pipped in title race (News24)

Jurgen Klopp admitted Liverpool's agonising failure to win the Premier League title was the "story of my life" as the German had to settle for second place ...

He's limping, so it's maybe not the best sign," he said. I'm still record holder for not getting promoted in Germany with the highest points tally. I don't know the results exactly but I know Villa were 1-0 up -- were they 2-0 up as well?

Liverpool have confirmed the transfer of attacking midfielder Fábio Carvalho from Fulham. Jürgen Klopp has a top talent on his hands that could be moulded ...

Firmino was a number 10 at Hoffenheim before Klopp turned the Brendan Rodgers signing into a central striker, and Carvalho does have the hallmarks of someone who could potentially do that role. It could be that Liverpool view Carvalho as a long term successor to Roberto Firmino as a false nine. But what does remain to be seen is exactly where Carvalho ends up playing on the pitch.

Man Utd, Liverpool, Arsenal and others' prize money following ... (Daily Express)

MANCHESTER CITY won the Premier League title on Sunday.

Burnley, who finished 18th after losing at home to Newcastle, will net themselves £6.6m, while Watford will be given just £4.4m and bottom of the table Norwich a measly £2.2m. Across the capital, Tottenham beat Arsenal to fourth place to cement a spot in next season’s Champions League after thrashing Norwich 5-0 and will get £37.4m for their efforts. Premier League clubs are set to get their hands on their prize money after the season came to an end in emphatic fashion on Sunday afternoon. Liverpool’s disappointment will be softened by the fact they’ll pick-up £41.8m for their endeavours this season. But that result wasn’t enough for Liverpool to clinch the title. Manchester United qualified for the Europa League on Sunday despite the fact they were beaten 1-0 by Crystal Palace and will have their coffers bolstered by £33m, while West Ham, who will play in next season’s Europa Conference League after going down to Brighton 3-1, will be given £30.8m.
