Several weeks ago, FC Liverpool crowned themselves English football champions for the 20th time in the club's history. The Reds secured the title with a resounding 5-1 home victory against Tottenham Hotspur on the 34th matchday. With 82 points after 34 games, this is certainly impressive and almost seemed record-breaking with four games still to play.

However, both the all-time record of Manchester City with 100 points from the 2017/18 season and the club's own record from 2019/20 with 99 points were already out of reach for Salah & Co. Nevertheless, FC Liverpool has now achieved something that no team in the Premier League has managed before.

Since Arne Slot's team secured the PL title, things haven't been going so well. In the following games, there was a 1-3 defeat against Chelsea, a 2-2 draw against Arsenal, and yesterday a 2-3 loss to Brighton & Hove Albion.

Never before in the Premier League has a team crowned themselves champions during the season and then failed to celebrate a single victory in the following three games. Does this make FC Liverpool the worst English champion of all time? From this perspective, perhaps, but generally, there are certainly several arguments against this thesis.
