A Prime Video Sport UK clip shared on March 3 recalled Liverpool's unreal run from early 2019 to February 2020, where they won 35 straight Premier League games and drew only once—a 1-1 at Manchester United's Old Trafford, thanks to Rashford's penalty and Lallana's late equalizer. That streak fueled their 2019/20 title win with 99 points, smashing records like most points in a 38-game span at 108. Rivals teased it as un-Premier League magic while fans hailed the 'mentality monsters' and compared it to Arsenal's Invincibles, who unbeaten but drew 12 times over 38 games.

Key Takeaway

Liverpool supporters lit up with memories of Jürgen Klopp's Reds turning the Premier League into their playground, grabbing 106 points from just one draw in 36 matches.
