After seeing Liverpool losing in the Uefa Champions League and after seeing them losing the final of the carabao cup i start to think they has quite a good luck in this premier because they don't have to face any serious contender.
Manchester city normally stole the show but this year they are the worst versión of them in years.
Liverpool is not only lucky that they do not have any serious challengers this season, but they are also lucky that they are dominating the Premier League top table by a huge point, assuming there is 6 point gap with Arsenal, I am confident that Arteta could have challenged in the remaining games of the season. I was disappointed with Liverpool at this point in the season when they were knocked out of the Champions League; I understand that their chances of a treble have ended, and I assume two trophies were remaining for Arne Slot to win on his trophy, till they lost to Newcastle.
However, it was unexpected that Liverpool were unable to maintain the pressure of Newcastle from the start of the game. According to H2H, before the Carabao Cup final, Liverpool had not lost a game against Newcastle in their previous ten meetings in all competitions, if not for the huge points gap, Arne Slot's first season may have been trophyless.
