There is a reasonable case to be argued that the current Liverpool team is the best the club has ever fielded.
It is also possible that Jurgen Klopp and those who play for him may one day look back at their careers and realise they only won a single Premier League title.
That, in a nutshell, is the state of play in the top flight of English football ahead of the new season. The standard at the very top is arguably higher than it’s ever been yet one team still stands alone as the Premier League’s very best.
