On Saturday, Liverpool’s first win of the season came after four losses, and they did it in dominant fashion, hammering Bournemouth 9-0 at Anfield to tie the record for the largest Premier League win.
Harvey Elliott, Trent Alexander-Arnold, Virgil van Dijk, Fabio Carvalho, and an own goal by Chris Mepham rounded up the scoring, along with braces from Roberto Firmino and Luis Diaz.
Liverpool’s triumph was as convincing as Manchester United’s 9-0 victory against Ipswich in 1995. United’s win over Southampton last year was by the same score, while Leicester’s win at Southampton this year was similarly by a score of 9-0.
