After this campaign, it now seems that Liverpool is the dominant team in the Premier League title this season, mainly because of Manchester City's own problems and Arsenal's lack of stamina to win the title, not how good Liverpool is. In the League Cup final, Newcastle had a comprehensive advantage against Liverpool, the Premier League was a big kill, and Salah, who led the scorer list & assist king, was invisible again after the two legs of the Champions League 1/8 finals. Salah is great, but it's still close to being a superstar. Liverpool's problem is still positional warfare, Newcastle counterattack knife fatal, magpies fly up the branches to become phoenixes, is to defeat Liverpool in a simple way with high and high. Dan Byrne's header came from a corner and Isak's push came from a cross from the left + a team-mate's header was crossed. Liverpool's pull back was an unexpected new signing Chiesa, but it was too late to score in stoppage time. In the end, Newcastle defeated Liverpool 2-1, and the team won the championship (League Cup) for the first time in 70 years, and Liverpool was out of the Champions League + League Cup in one week.
