LIVERPOOL, England -- Three quick thoughts from Anfield as Liverpool overturned an early 1-0 deficit to beat Stoke 4-1...
1. Liverpool win to match their rivals
There is often a disadvantage in playing last. Liverpool had to watch Chelsea, Arsenal and Manchester City win on Boxing Day, dropping from second place to third without kicking a ball and threatening to fall to fourth when they did. But having trailed, they triumphed. A 4-1 win against Stoke took them back to second in the table and took their tally of league goals under Jurgen Klopp to 100: not bad considering the German has only been in charge for 14 months.
