Liverpool news: Pat Nevin on unforgettable title-winning day

Mo Salah has signed up again as has Virgil van Dijk and neither appears to have been even slightly diminished by age, judging by my visit to Anfield on Sunday.

The midfield of Alexis Mac Allister and Ryan Gravenberch were incredible, both exceptional defensively and offensively – but, more importantly, playing as a duo. They must have been horrible to play against, which is a huge compliment.

Add in Curtis Jones and Dominik Szoboszlai, and the average age of the quartet is still under 25. These midfielders are just coming into their prime and are set fair to be the next generation of trophy winners

On top of this, Liverpool will undoubtedly add more quality around them, possibly even a top-level striker, improving them from a side that has romped home as champions by a country mile.

The thing that stays with me is the joy on the face of every fan post-match. How many days can you truly say, with confidence, that you will never forget for the rest of your life?‌

Wherever you travelled from, whatever you paid, if you were in that stadium, it was a day seared in the memory if you were a red.

That is why we love football, every now and again it provides those life-affirming moments – and this was one for every fan, player or worker at that club.
