Jürgen Klopp's Liverpool continue to set records in the quest for a first Premier League title and their latest victory saw the Reds equal a landmark set under Bill Shankly almost half a century ago.
The 3-2 success against West Ham United on Monday was the 21st in a row by Klopp’s side in the Premier League at Anfield – matching the all-time English top-flight record winning streak by any team on home soil, originally set by Shankly’s Reds in 1972.
A lot may have changed in the near-50 years separating the two feats, but there are plenty of comparisons to be drawn that highlight how the current crop represent a throwback to one of the club’s best eras.
