Liverpool may have lost to Chelsea at the weekend, but those at Anfield are still on cloud nine.
Indeed, Liverpool are Premier League champions, and there have been non-stop celebrations on Merseyside over the past week or so.

It’s been a dream of a season for Liverpool, but there have been a few issues for a few players.
Indeed, Federico Chiesa has barely played, while Caoimhin Kelleher has said he’s unhappy with how much he’s been playing at times.
Speaking on BBC 606, Chris Sutton has been discussing some of the fringe players at Liverpool, and he says that he has real sympathy for Harvey Elliott.
Chris Sutton feels sorry for Harvey Elliott
Sutton spoke about the £4m man alongside Robbie Savage.
The pundit says he genuinely does have sympathy for Harvey Elliott, claiming that he’s not been able to get into any sort of rhythm this season.
“One thing I would say, I do have sympathy for, you know, Harvey Elliott and the other players who, you know, have been fringe players because I do take your point they have to grab their chance. But, I mean, you know, as a player, and Rob will tell you this as well, you like to get into a rhythm and they haven’t been able to do that really all season because you can, you know, virtually pick the Liverpool team sort of week in and week out. It’s the same group of players, roughly, isn’t it, I think?”
What Jurgen Klopp said about Harvey Elliott last season
Elliott hasn’t played as much as he would like this season, and, at this point, Elliott is being linked with a move away from Anfield.
Frustratingly, this isn’t the first time the midfielder has had a problem like this.
Indeed, last year, Jurgen Klopp actually apologised for not using Elliott enough.
“A great game for both (Elliott and Cody Gakpo). It’s not like this where I go back and think what did I do wrong here or there, but if I regret one thing it’s that Harvey didn’t play often enough maybe,” Klopp said.
“It was a very important and intense period. In January, a lot of injuries, he played really good, probably our best player, right wing, midfield, but everybody came back, minutes here, minutes there and he didn’t start anymore,” Klopp said.
Klopp didn’t use Elliott enough, and, sadly, that trend has continued under Arne Slot, and now, the midfielder may be best off looking to continue his career elsewhere.
