5 Reasons Liverpool need to worry about West Brom
By David Gate
Liverpool are on a fantastic run lately progressing to the Semi Finals of the Champions League. But they cannot be complacent against West Brom this weekend.
This is a good moment to be a Liverpool fan. The Reds are back at the European high table as the reach the last four of the Champions League. The two victories over Man City – particularly the 3-0 first leg – have announced Liverpool as top-level side once more.
The Reds front three is devastating every side they play against. Mohamed Salah scores in every game. Seriously. He has only not scored in one (ONE) game of the last fourteen (FOURTEEN) games he has started. Before that run it was 14 out of 19 games he scored in. Man is a machine. A beautiful afro-headed goal machine.
