Liverpool’s 2019/2020 campaign was full of memorable moments.
The Mohamed Salah goal against Man United at Anfield, Fabinho’s rocket against Man City and the hammering of Everton all stand out.
Liverpool would end their 30-year wait for an English title that season finishing 18 points ahead of City on an incredible total of 99 points.
Arne Slot is trying to deliver the Reds a second Premier League crown this season and there have already been some standout matches this season.
Andy Robertson has been reflecting on both campaigns with the left-back making comparisons between a late victory last month and the ‘turning point’ from the 2019/20 title-winning campaign.

Brentford win reminds Andy Robertson of the 2019/20 season
On 2 November 2019, Liverpool trailed Aston Villa 1-0 with five minutes remaining on the clock. In the 87th minute, Robertson would net the equaliser for the Reds before Sadio Mane sent the away end wild with a 94th-minute winner.
That win was a massive moment in the campaign for Jurgen Klopp’s team as the momentum it created pushed Liverpool on to greater things.
Last month, Darwin Nunez scored a brace in added time against Brentford on a weekend where Arsenal dropped points to Aston Villa.
The moment has drawn a comparison between the two games and speaking in the official matchday programme for Liverpool’s match with Wolves, Robertson has been reflecting on that moment at Villa Park in 2019.
“That Villa game is probably one of my favourite games to look back on,” the Scotland star said. “It was a key one and if I remember correctly us and Man City both came from behind on the same day.
“It was very rare that both of us were playing at 3pm on a Saturday and both of us overturned a defeat. We stayed six points clear and beat them the following week to go nine points clear and that was a big turning point in the league.
“The Villa game was in November, but it proved to be massive, and hopefully the Brentford game and the three points we got there proves to be massive this season as well.”
Despite the Brentford result, Robertson is not getting ahead of himself as the defender knows there is a long way to go in the title race.

Premier League title is not over admits Andy Robertson
Liverpool have the chance to keep a 15-year streak alive when Wolves visit Anfield in the Premier League on Sunday and that is the main focus of Slot’s team.
The contest could prove to be a difficult one for the Merseyside club as Wolves boss Vitor Pereira has an ambitious plan to beat Liverpool.
The Reds increased their lead at the top of the Premier League to seven points on Wednesday with their draw against Everton but Robertson has stated that they will not be thinking about winning the title until April or May.
“I think we are just trying to win the next game that’s in front of us and that’s Wolves,” the left-back said. “Our schedule is far too busy at the minute to look too far ahead or even have a minute’s thought to look at the league table.
“Only in April or May can you start dreaming that you can win it. We’re just trying to keep winning games to allow us to keep the gap or extend the gap if teams behind us drop points.”
The Wolves game can be viewed as an important one in Liverpool’s season as the Merseyside club need to regain momentum after failing to win their last two matches.
