ANFIELD, LIVERPOOL // As the Premier League resumed, Liverpool — albeit a new-look side after a busy summer in the transfer market — needed Federico Chiesa to pop up with a late winner to earn the three points in spectacular fashion.
Top of the table by virtue of the Reds and Bournemouth being the only teams to have played so far, would you bet against Liverpool sitting there in May?
Cody Gakpo, a player who has hit another level under Arne Slot, put Liverpool two up just a couple of minutes into the second half, but Antoine Semenyo scored a brace to peg it back at 2-2.
Losers There were no losers here, though Liverpool does need to find a way to collectively control things better.
Even Bournemouth, though it lost the game, more than played its part in an entertaining spectacle.
David Brooks is a good player and in Antoine Semenyo, the Cherries have kept at least one star man from last season.
Jeremie Frimpong (7).
