Lol, you didn’t win the league or go invincible last season, so you’re doubly inferior to the invincibles

You’ve not considered the possibility that both City and Liverpool could both have been better?

Arsenal 03/04 certainly haemorrhaged more points than this Liverpool side.

Not that United are any kind of barometer, but Arsenal played us 4 times in their "invincible" season and didn't win once. Liverpool have to obviously go on and close that particular goal, if being "invincible" is a goal. I'd still expect them to be happy with being champions. Going on to retain the CL would be a far bigger dream than "invincibility" to most of their fans too imo. What do you guys say?

Absolutely right.

Going the season unbeaten would be nice, breaking the points record would be nice. Both pale into insignificance compared to retaining the CL.

I’d take the FA Cup over either of them as well.

I don’t think it’s crazy to suggest Liverpool are better than Arsenal’s invincibles, especially if they go on to break their unbeaten record which I think they will do.

But comparing points tallies over 2 seasons is stupid.

Fair enough - I was merely trying to show that this Liverpool side has reaped more points and been more consistent than a side widely considered to be one of the best sides for generations.

Losing 1 game in over a season and a half is extraordinary.

Good article Metro.

‘Invincible’ as a synonym for ‘better’?

Yeah, alright.

Liverpool are very lucky that they have no competition this year

Man City have been giving away points like theyre going out of fashion

You aren’t unbeaten though. Lost in Europe. Admittedly doing the league unbeaten would be a phenomenal achievement.

Despite arsenal 03/04 and chelsea 04/05 being great sides at the time man city and liverpool have raised the bar. Personally think the chelsea 04/05 was better than the arsenal 03/04

I agree with that shout.

I often thought that the Arsenal 01/02 side were just as good as the 03/04 one. Utd were in a bit of a transitional period post Becks, pre Rooney/good Ronaldo, whereas the 01/02 Utd side were expected to win the league again having just signed Veron.

When was the last time Liverpool played against a fully fit opposition team from the top 5 from last season? It seems when we they face one if these teams, their key players are injured. Lucky pool

well, in that case, arsenal aren't/weren't 'the invincibles' either. cos unless they've won some champions league trophy that no-one else in the world knows about, they lost in Europe as well.

Exactly, Arsenal knocked out of the champions league by Chelsea, fa cup by utd and league cup by Boro

Always thought if the bulk of the league is taking points off each other that is a strong league.

If a team can be top of that league it is a strong team, and if they are miles ahead, that's a Jurgen Klopp team at their peak.

Seems I'm right.
