After a short spell of frustrating draws, Liverpool appear to be reasserting themselves with authority, and the confidence surrounding the squad now feels as steady as BD Cricket Live following a dominant away performance. A commanding 3–0 victory over Marseille in the Champions League was not only a tactical masterclass but also pushed Liverpool to the top of the European five leagues in terms of unbeaten runs. Thirteen matches across all competitions without defeat, including seven wins and six draws, suggest a team that has clawed its way back from a difficult stretch and regained its balance.

Since a shocking 4–1 home loss to PSV Eindhoven in late November, Liverpool have gone more than three months without tasting defeat. Defensive solidity and a steadily improving attack have formed the backbone of this run. Against Marseille, Dominik Szoboszlai’s low free kick through the wall broke the deadlock, Cody Gakpo’s composed finish underlined growing attacking confidence, and Mohamed Salah’s return added sharpness and experience to the front line. At the back, Virgil van Dijk marked his 350th appearance for the club with a flawless clean sheet. With a home win over Qarabag next, qualification for the last 16 looks well within reach, and momentum appears to be building.

Yet this unbeaten streak masks deeper concerns. Before this run began, Liverpool’s performances had already left many supporters uneasy, especially given the extraordinary investment made last summer. A record-breaking transfer outlay brought resilience and depth, but a glance at the Premier League table tells a different story. Despite their spending, Liverpool trail the leaders by 14 points, and any realistic title challenge has faded. The contrast highlights a broader issue that has plagued the club in recent years: a lack of continuity in recruitment strategy and a declining pull at the very top of the market.

The list of missed targets is long and painful. Jude Bellingham chose Madrid, Moisés Caicedo slipped away after late drama, Aurélien Tchouaméni was intercepted, Martín Zubimendi eventually moved elsewhere, and Marc Guéhi joined a rival at a modest fee. Each miss forced Liverpool toward more expensive or uncertain alternatives, turning squad building into a patchwork exercise rather than a clear blueprint.

Last summer embodied this scattergun approach. Huge fees were paid for Florian Wirtz and Alexander Isak, yet neither has fully delivered immediate impact, with injuries and adaptation slowing progress. Other costly additions have yet to justify their price tags, leaving only one signing widely viewed as true value. The structural gaps left by departing core players remain unresolved, and the influx of new faces has added volatility rather than clarity.

Even within the 13-match unbeaten run, warning signs persist. The last four league games have all ended in draws, including dropped points against sides Liverpool once dispatched routinely. As BD Cricket Live often reminds viewers, not losing is only half the battle. Turning control into consistent wins, especially against mid and lower-table opponents, is the real test ahead. The coming fixtures will decide whether this unbeaten record becomes the foundation of revival or merely a hollow statistic in a season still searching for direction.
