It has been a very long season so far in the English Premier league with the fight being who will finish out of the champions league zone. English Premier League unarguably is the most competitive league in the world and as well the most followed. So thousands of football faithful are always curious to know what transpired in the competition every now and then.

Liverpool since the first whistle of the premier league all things being equal has assume the top spot on the log with many crowning them champions some months back when Klopp’s men were some good point off the second place City who were struggling to win matches. At a point last year I wrote a post about Liverpool having one hand on the Premier League title but as always, Premier League is one unpredictable league full of drama and surprises.

Many Liverpool fans may have their star man to blame partially for his in ability to utilize two scoring opportunities to put his side back to the table lead as Manchester City yesterday assumed the top spot having played a game more. Many fans took to various social media platform to express their view or rather anger with Salah after rival Everton held Liverpool to a draw and a little set back on their title ambition.

After receiving a pass from Fabinho in the first half on the game, Salah put himself in a tight angle which allowed Jordan Pickford to block it. The second opportunity for the man who has managed 64 goals for the Red’s to redeem his mistake following Zouma’s error ran clear with the ball but his hesitance and poor touch of the ball allowed Keane to make an important tackle. The game went on to end in a goals draw and I must say it was a big win for Everton to have walked away with a handshake.

At the back hill of their draw against Manchester United last weekend after the mid week victory against Watford, many Liverpool fans knew that this game was a big one for both teams as they continue their rival against each other. Don’t forget in the first leg that Liverpool had to wait for last minute blunder by Everton keeper at Anfield to take all three points but playing away today was really a tough one.

Liverpool will look forward to win in their next features against Burnley and Fulham next in line. All maximum point is what is expected from Liverpool as they take the small teams (on paper) to repair some of the damage about to happen. With their strong defensive line and Van Dijk at the heart of it all, Salah, Mane and the rest of the team will have to up their game or they will have to regret it at the end.

Conclusion

The EPL is gradually coming to a close for the 2018/2019 season with just 9 more matches to go and Liverpool title fate is little in their own hands. Mathematically, there is still 27 points left for all the teams to via for after 29 games and no club can be out rightly be tagged a small team, then team that gets the best possible points between Liverpool and Manchester City will be in a good position to be crown champions.

The door is still very much open for Liverpool to assume their former position if Klopp will from now work on the psychology of his boys because Pep Guardiola men have the men in their squad to build such mental energy than them. Klopp in his post match interview has expressed optimism that his boys will continue to push for the premier league title.
