Season rating: 10/10. We won the Premier League and Manchester United had the their worst season in living memory. I imagine I'd have taken that at the start of the campaign.

Happy with your manager? Absolutely. I already wouldn't swap him for anybody in the world, including the man he replaced, Jurgen Klopp. He signed nobody bar Federico Chiesa and revitalised a team that had run out energy under the German. He made subtle tactical changes and got the best out of almost every player at his disposal. Imagine how good he's going to be when he gets some of his own signings through the door?

Unsung hero: Alexis Mac Allister. For me, the best midfielder in the Premier League this season. Ryan Gravenberch has been praised for his brilliance at number six but the Argentine has been better overall. The fact he wasn't up for Premier League player of the year and Declan Rice was is silly.

Player you would most like to sign: Alexander Isak. The best striker on the planet, coming into his absolute peak. I think it'll be impossible though, so I'd take Florian Wirtz as a playmaking genius instead.

Here's my quick assessment of Liverpool's Premier League season - and a return to my August predictions.

Pre-season prediction: 3rd

Ended the season: 1st

Worthy winners of a 20th title. Liverpool dominated the Premier League from an early stage and never looked like slipping up as they moved relentlessly while others faltered. A brilliant first season for head coach Arne Slot, who made what many regarded as the impossible task of succeeding Jurgen Klopp look so much easier than it was.

Mohamed Salah was the inspiration, but this Liverpool team had strength, quality and consistency in all areas. They can now add power from the ultimate position of strength, with Bayer Leverkusen's brilliant Florian Wirtz potentially on the way in a £125m British record deal.

What I said in August: "While there is understandable anxiety from supporters about the lack of signings, this remains an exceptionally strong Liverpool squad. They will challenge for trophies and finish in the top four."

Via the Blues' social media, Moyes said he was "shocked and saddened by the deeply distressing scenes that unfolded", adding: "On behalf of all my players and staff, I'd like to pass on my heartfelt best wishes to all those who were injured and affected, as well as their families and friends.

"I would also like to pay tribute to the first responders and all of the emergency services.

"One of the things that makes this city special is the solidarity between the people, who always come together in times of hardship.

"We always stand together in the most difficult times."

We asked you to select your Liverpool player of the season from the four candidates chosen by our fan contributor.

And with the poll now closed, we can reveal the winner is... Mohamed Salah!

Here's what Jordan Chamberlain at Empire of the Kop, external said about him:

Most goals, most assists and the most goal contributions in a Premier League season - ever. Salah has been unrivalled among the division's forwards.

Liverpool wouldn't have won the title without him - and renewing his contract was absolutely vital to the club's chances of more silverware next term.

Bournemouth and Tottenham were the most physical teams in the Premier League this season when considering the distance they covered and the number of sprints performed.

The results might explain why they had a lot of injuries.

Newcastle and Brighton were not too far behind though, with Brighton actually covering the most ground in the league, with fewer sprints.

Chelsea and Liverpool's style of play saw them sprint a lot but not cover a lot of ground, while Manchester City and Arsenal were the opposite (ran a lot but didn't sprint a lot).

Nottingham Forest very much had their own style of play this season as they both ran and sprinted the least.

A man has been arrested after a car hit a number of pedestrians in Liverpool city centre during the Premier League victory parade on Monday.

A car collided with a number of pedestrians on Water Street just after 18:00, Merseyside Police said.

In a statement the force said: "We were contacted at just after 18:00 today, Monday 26 May, following reports a car had been in collision with a number of pedestrians on Water Street.

"The car stopped at the scene and a male has been detained."

Police later said a 53-year-old white British man from the Liverpool area had been arrested and that he was believed to be the driver.

The incident is not being treated as terror-related and is believed to be isolated, police said.

The ambulance service said 27 people had been taken to hospital for treatment, with two, including one child, seriously injured.

Another 20 people were treated for injuries at the scene, with four children among the injured.

Four people including a child were lifted from beneath the car, Merseyside chief fire Nick Searle said.
