Liverpool climbed two spots in the Premier League after a historic 7-0 win over arch-rival Manchester United in its own backyard, at Anfield, on Sunday.
The win took the Reds into the race for Europe, with it sitting fifth at the moment, having a game in hand over fourth-placed Tottenham Hotspur. Man United, on the other hand, did not see a change in position despite the demoralising loss and sits third, 14 points short of table-topper, Arsenal.
