Although we’re only in October, it’s already starting to feel like this is finally Liverpool’s season.

The Reds, who finished as Premier League runners-up behind Manchester City last term despite amassing an astonishing 97 points, are currently flying high at the top of the table.

They’ve sealed eight wins from their opening eight league fixtures, leaving them eight points clear of second-placed Manchester City, who suffered a shock 2-0 defeat to Wolves on Sunday.

Liverpool almost dropped points for the first time this season against Leicester City on Saturday afternoon but James Milner won the game with virtually the last kick of the game from the penalty spot.

The bookmakers now have Liverpool priced as 4/6 favourites to win the title, ahead of City (13/10), after a dream weekend for the Merseyside outfit.

Over on Liverpool Reddit, one fan started a thread with the headline ‘If Carlsberg did weekends!’.

The thread contains a graphic of everything that happened over the course of Saturday and Sunday to make Liverpool’s weekend perfect.

Tottenham lose 3-0 to Brighton.

Burnley beat Everton 1-0.

Liverpool defeat Leicester 2-1.

Liverpool won thanks to a “debatable” last-gasp penalty which annoyed rival fans.

Man Utd lost 1-0 to a terrible Newcastle side.

Man City were beaten 2-0 by Wolves at home.

Liverpool now have more points than Man City and Everton combined.

Everton are now in the relegation zone.

And, finally, Liverpool are now eight points clear after eight games.

Here's that sequence of events complete with the Vince McMahon meme.

This was the ultimate Saturday and Sunday for Reds all over the world.

No doubt they’ll have walked into work or school on Monday morning with an extra spring in their step.

But the question is: can Liverpool now go on and end their long wait for a league title - or will they let it slip?
