Liverpool took another step towards the Premier League title with a win over Newcastle United on Wednesday.

The Reds had the chance to build on what was an excellent weekend for them, with 11 points the gap down to second-placed Arsenal.

With Arsenal looking at a tough trip to Nottingham Forest and kicking off 45 minutes before Liverpool, supporters at Anfield knew they’d learn the result of their rivals before their own game ended.

Forest have been a match for anyone at the City Ground this season, leaving Reds fans expectant of a good result.

And that’s exactly what they got, with a draw very much enough to appease the crowds inside Anfield.

As the 0-0 result filtered through to to supporters, journalist Ian Doyle heard Liverpool fans giving their own unique reaction.

Liverpool fans react to Arsenal draw

Arsenal’s draw and Liverpool’s win means the Reds are now 13 points clear at the top of the Premier League table.

The Gunners do have a game in hand, but even if they reduce that lead to 10 points, it looks an enormous mountain for them to climb.

There are some mitigating circumstances, of course. Mikel Arteta’s team have been beset by attacking injuries.

But as Arsenal fade further into the distance, Liverpool supporters have every right to enjoy it.

And according to Doyle, that’s exactly what they did. Reporting on X, the journalist relayed what he’d heard coming from the stands at Anfield.

“We shall not be moved” sing the LFC fans on hearing Arsenal have failed to win again,” he said.

Liverpool take huge step towards title

Rewind the clock just two weeks and Liverpool had an incredibly daunting run ahead of them.

Visits to Goodison Park, Villa Park and the Etihad Stadium lay in wait, as well as home games against Wolves and Newcastle.

In good form themselves, Arsenal must have sensed a chance to strike. But the Gunners have quickly seen things fade from their grasp.

Their is a chance they could come back. This is football and stranger things have happened. It would take a mammoth collapse from the Reds, though.

In this kind of form, that simply doesn’t look like happening. We shall not be moved.
