Liverpool denied title but Paris can provide final flourish to superb ... (The Guardian)

Pieces were falling into place for an unlikely triumph but now Jürgen Klopp's thoughts must turn to the Champions League.

But the truth is that 92 points is, by any reasonable measure, an absurd number of points to have gathered; only once before has that not been enough to win the title, and that was this Liverpool in 2019. On a normal Sunday afternoon, Liverpool would probably have swept Wolves away but here, with the line in sight, with so much at stake, the muscles just felt a little tighter, the passing a little less fluent, the mechanisms just a little gummy. The possibility that Steven Gerrard might at last win the title for Liverpool had been teased almost to breaking point. They won and they hoped and in the end it wasn’t quite enough. Liverpool did their bit, and in the end that is all they could do. In the end it did not, but for 80 unlikely minutes it seemed as though it might.

Premier League final day: Man City win dramatic title over Liverpool ... (ESPN)

Man City were crowned Premier League champions in the most dramatic circumstances, while Spurs landed fourth and Burnley were relegated.

Put simply, a win at the Etihad will be enough for Pep Guardiola's side, but failure to do so would open the way for Klopp's team to take the title and keep their hopes of an unprecedented quadruple alive. If City lose and Liverpool draw, it then goes down to goal difference, but it would require City to lose by seven goals for Liverpool to finish top. A burst forward by Raul Jimenez caught Liverpool out and the Mexico forward squared for Neto to tap in at the far post in front of The Kop.-- Mark Ogden Either title number 20, a domestic treble and 3/4 of the way to the Quadruple or the end of an improbable dream. There is still a bit of nervousness among the fans inside the stadium, although most are happy to see that it's Robin Olsen in goal for Aston Villa rather than Emi Martinez. Olsen hasn't played for Villa since joining on loan in January. His last club game was playing for Sheffield United in a 3-1 defeat to Blackburn in November. He's just kicked the ball out of play with his first touch. The danger for City now is that they have to throw men forward to get a goal but Ollie Watkins is still causing a lot of problems at the other end. An incredible and unexpected start to the final day as Liverpool fall behind against Wolves at Anfield inside the first three minutes. The energy in the atmosphere was already beginning to drift away but after that Villa goal it's completely gone. Mings has already been spoken to by Michael Oliver. Zinchenko has been up off the bench trying to lift the City fans. It may still work out for City today but it says a lot about Grealish's first season here that he's going to be a spectator for the biggest game of the season Some Man City fans starting to leave. Will regular taker Harry Kane step up to make this game completely safe at 3-0 or will he hand the ball to Son for a possible slice of personal glory? Son gets his goal to move level with Salah in the Golden Boot race.

'It's amazing, Dad!': the Liverpool fans who lent their tickets to their kids (The Guardian)

Some season ticket holders made the ultimate sacrifice for the Premier League match and watched it from the pub.

He never raised the Premier League trophy as Liverpool captain, but as Aston Villa’s manager had the chance on Sunday to help his old club to victory by beating Manchester City. “If they beat City and we win, we win the league. Their victory in the end is the difference between being able to pay £30m and £80m for a player.” They became champions for the fourth time in five seasons and Liverpool’s title dream was over. A fan for 60 years, he remembered his own father bringing him to games and watching matches from the “boys’ pen”, a small enclosure for children. “I’m absolutely distraught,” said Alexander Pritchard, who had driven up with his girlfriend from Bargoed in the Welsh valleys without tickets: “At the end of the day, we have got to give City credit. She had given her 16-year-old son, Dylan, her ticket, and was left jostling for position with vaping 12-year-olds and a bunch of Egyptian tourists who were beside themselves when Mo Salah scored in the 84th minute.

The Liverpool manager saw his side fall short by a point despite beating Wolves, days before their Champions League final against Real Madrid.

We now have five days to prepare the final and we face an incredibly experienced team, but that’s really OK. Losing the league today increases the desire to put it right next week.” Not today the maximum reward, but we will get it. What I learned about life is that if you stay on track and keep going, you get the reward. Klopp insisted his treble chasers would turn their Premier League deflation into a motivation when meeting the Spanish champions in Paris on Saturday. The Liverpool manager said: “I can imagine it was much worse for the people at home watching on TV all over the world who were Liverpool fans.

Once their season officially winds down, Liverpool will be back at the drawing board hoping to plot out some moves for the summer that will help them overtake Manchester City and win the Premier League in 2022-23. Liverpool would feel no need to rush him into the Starting XI, though he could easily work his way into the mix before long, and he’d be playing alongside some of the most esteemed goalscorers in the world, while having a rock-solid defense behind him. The young French star has emerged as one of the best young players in football this season, and likely won’t last at AS Monaco beyond the summer. The club has been linked to Ajax starlet Antony, who enjoyed a sensational season in Holland’s top flight in 2021-22. While Liverpool can still take home a Champions League trophy, Jurgen Klopp and Co. will surely be disappointed not to be crowned Premier League champions, especially after a superb second half of the season. Liverpool fought hard but came up one point short in their chase for a Premier League title.

Liverpool can still crown best Jürgen Klopp season but Ibrahima ... (Liverpool.com)

The Good, Bad and Ugly: Liverpool made Jürgen Klopp proud once again with a battling Wolves win after an Ibrahima Konaté error, but it wasn't quite enough.

The cruelty of the comeback was made somewhat more bearable by the fact that it had been completed before Liverpool had managed to establish a lead of their own. It’s never exactly the ideal opening to a game, but given the circumstances, it was shocking. For a long time, it looked as though Manchester City would slip up, only for Liverpool to fail to capitalise. As such, going behind within a matter of minutes was the definition of a bad start. Who knows if that information would even have reached the pitch at the Etihad? It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but Klopp will know that his team have done him proud. Winning it would have been almost literally unbelievable, but becoming champions of Europe next weekend would crown the best campaign in living memory — and certainly the best under Klopp.

It’s also worth noting that De Bruyne was Premier League Player of the Season in 2019/20 despite Liverpool’s glaring supremacy, while Foden has now won Young Player of the Season back-to-back. Only twice in Premier League history has a player led both tables outright — Andy Cole in 1993/94 and Harry Kane in 2020/21. It seems that recency bias has played a large part in De Bruyne’s success. Salah’s goal in the 2-2 draw against Chelsea on 2 January took him to 23 for the season, in addition to his 10 assists. Better than Salah? It’s important to stress the rarity of a player topping both the goals and assists charts. Midway through the current campaign, he looked like he might just be able to challenge those numbers.

Liverpool just came up short as Man City won the Premier League title again. But for Jurgen Klopp's men it's all about the what-ifs.

It is Liverpool's misfortune to be enjoying their peak years under Klopp at the same time City are collecting trophies under Guardiola. Over the last four years, Liverpool have won one title and finished runners-up behind City twice -- with 92 points this season and 97 in 2018-19. "There are worse scenarios -- we could have been a point ahead [on the final day] and not made it -- but we don't feel good. "I would have preferred they [City] were 5-0 up after 10 minutes so we could just play out game, but the season was close, so close. By the time Mohamed Salah managed to put Liverpool ahead on 84 minutes, City had already turned defeat into victory by scoring three times in five minutes through Gundogan (twice) and Rodri. It was the same story at home to Brighton in October, when 2-0 became 2-2, that time after being two goals clear after 24 minutes. LIVERPOOL, England -- There are always what-ifs when a team gets so close to glory.

Liverpool 2021-22 season review: Reds fell short of perfection but ... (iNews)

Daniel Storey reflects on the campaign just gone and looks at the challenges ahead as part of The Score's season reviews for all 20 Premier League clubs.

The biggest moment of Liverpool’s season didn’t come on the pitch and would surely only be surpassed by winning the Champions League final in Paris. On 29 April, Liverpool announced that Klopp had signed a two-year extension to his contract. And remarkable too that it wasn’t enough to give them a shot at the quadruple. Klopp’s side were involved in five 2-2 draws, a 3-3 draw and a 3-2 defeat in the league this season. They were brilliant and they were brilliant to watch. To an extent chaos defines Klopp’s success – “heavy metal football” and all that – and suits the team: a front three of bangs and whistles, a high defensive line and two gloriously attacking full-backs. Liverpool are unfortunate to have peaked at the same time as Pep Guardiola’s Manchester City. Even if you consider that these two clubs and managers propel each other on, Liverpool would be more triumphant if Guardiola wasn’t here.

Taking place at the Stade de France, 2019 Champions League victors Liverpool will battle Real Madrid, winners of four UCL titles since the 2013-14 campaign.

For the reasons outlined above, I would play Liverpool up to -145 in regular time as I have it projected at -160. Add in its two group stage fixtures against Inter Milan and the discrepancy becomes even larger. In its last five UCL fixtures, Real’s offense has generated 1.76 xG/90 minutes. Additionally, Liverpool’s defense has played rock-steady in its last six UCL fixtures. Even if you remove the two Benfica matches from consideration, Liverpool’s offensive output drops to only 1.53 xG/90 minutes. This will be a rematch of the 2018 Champions League Final, which saw Real claim its third consecutive European crown after dispatching Liverpool, 3-1.
