Liverpool had the pressure put on them not only by Arsenal’s win but also the points they dropped at the final Goodison Park derby against Everton.
It was an emotional night on Merseyside and it brought back many memories of those games I played in. In fact, the tackles, wildness and general mayhem was a direct throwback to those less controlled times, and I loved watching it for that.
Liverpool now only had to take care of Wolves and they did, after a bit of a struggle. Champions win even when not at their best and Liverpool still aren’t showing enough signs of weakness to make them look likely to fold.
As they say in the game, it is up to the others to keep them honest and continue to pour on any pressure they can, even if it doesn’t seem to be working.
