Of course currently they are, but what about all time? Has there ever been a team in PL history who can score so many different types of goals as they do? They pretty much are redefining what a long ball team is. It’s not an aimless hoof upfield as many poor teams usually play. It’s legitimately top notch long passes from one side of the pitch to another. Against Everton the amount of long passes that they scored from was ridiculous. Other than Original, who isn’t even their main striker, their forwards are all under 6ft. Henderson’s assist today was like Fabregas to RvP or Adebayor. But they can also score ruthlessly on the counter with their pace. They can also break teams down with patience build up if required, but it’s rarely needed due to them being so direct.
This style works best in PL due to the nature of the game being so direct and fast. It’s worked in Europe as well. At its best I still regard Pep’s philosophy to be most entertaining but it requires highly technical and intelligent players. Klopp’s team can have players who are otherwise fairly average individuals, playing absolute top quality football i.e Henderson.
I don’t think there’s been a team, maybe not even Invincibles that have had so many versatile ways of scoring so regular. I genuinely think they can go unbeaten. Never for one second did I ever think Pep could take a team unbeaten because there’s always that one game that a rigid style can fail against. But Liverpool can genuinely score anywhere at anytime with anyone in their line up. This month however is crucial. They go through here unscathed, it’s theirs to lose the title, and also go unbeaten.
Liverpool most dangerous PL team?

Liverpool are easily the most dangerous team.
You only have to look at what their supporters did to Man City's bus...

According to expected goals, Man City are by far the most dangerous team.

How else would you describe the amount of injury (Fergie) time awarded to Utd during that period?
Or the number of penalties awarded to United or the lack of opposition penalties awarded @ Old Toilet?
.........
Both are myths. Man Utd used to attack 90% of the time under SAF and teams used to do timewasting to hope for a lucky draw. We used have tons of wrongly disallowed goals and refs used to not give us stonewall pens. Remember 07-08 FA Cup knocked out by cheating ref, 2009 FA Cup knocked out by cheating ref. Around 27 wrongly disallowed goals in 08-09 season in the PL. In fact we clinched the title with a 0-0 draw but we had a wrongly disallowed goal.

If you think this run of form is lucky then the Utd of SAF tenure must have been even more lucky which would make them the luckiest team in PL history.

Corruption/bribery or luck. You decide.

Jesus christ, this has to be the dumbest comment I've ever seen.
I mean, who would ever think that the most attacking team in premiership history would get more penalties than other teams, right?
Almost as if there's a direct correlation bwteeen being in your opponents box and the number of penalties you receive.
