Liverpool have the most points gained from losing positions in the Premier League this season
Mentality Monsters. For the second time in three Premier League games, Liverpool left it rather too late but were eventually successful in securing all three points. In the Fulham game earlier this season, Liverpool scored two goals after the 80th minute to land a famous win at Anfield.
More recently, in the matchup against Crystal Palace, Liverpool equalised in the 76th minute before Harvey Elliott, coming on from the bench, scored the winner in the first minute of 10 added minutes and had the away stand at Selhurst Park go absolutely bats.
As revealed by Squawka via Twitter, the Reds have secured the most points this season from losing positions in the Premier League. The rather astonishing part about this statistic is the fact that Brighton follow the Reds in second, but the pair of clubs have a difference of seven points. SEVEN.
Read through to the end for another astonishing fact that our rivals from the Northwest will absolutely love. Coming back to the Reds, it is a wonderful feeling when Liverpool net late goals and the pure joy that fans get is truly unparalleled.
PS, we are just getting started!
However, the Merseysiders need to realise that not all games are of the same nature. Certain games require the players to come into action much earlier. It bodes well for the club to go up as soon as possible. Putting the opposition on the back foot from the get-go will only let things flow into Liverpool’s favour sooner rather than later.
As Liverpool fans revel in the late-game heroics, there’s a need for a call for a balance in approach. While the team’s ability to turn the tide in the dying moments is commendable, proactive and assertive play from the start can pave the way for more comfortable victories. Jurgen Klopp and Co. will stay away from all blood-pressure-related issues then.
Klopp’s men have shown they can navigate challenging scenarios, but strategic variations tailored to each game’s demands will only enhance their overall performance.

What was the other stat you say? As confirmed by OptaJoe, Klopp has seen his Liverpool side in 17 matches with last-minute goals, overtaking former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson at 16. Seems like time’s up for Fergie Time. Fancy calling it the Kloppage Time.
