Speaking on Match of the Day, Alan Shearer compared Jurgen Klopp's Liverpool to the Newcastle United team of the mid-1990s christened 'The Entertainers' under Kevin Keegan.
You can certainly see how the speed, free movement and commitment to attack of Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane is a modern-day echo of Shearer, David Ginola, Les Ferdinand and Tino Asprilla in their pomp.
But, as the history books tell us, Keegan's Newcastle never won the Premier League title. Prioritising pure entertainment, going all-out to attack, is no guarantee of success.
A gung-ho style needs a defensive counterpoint and, as Saturday's thriller at Selhurst Park demonstrated, Klopp still has work to do if his Liverpool side are to achieve the necessary control over every match they play.
