Liverpool vs Bournemouth

[Fabinho](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/fabinho/) returns, in place of [James Milner](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/james-milner/), and takes his spot alongside [Jordan Henderson](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/jordan-henderson/) and [Harvey Elliott](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/harvey-elliott/).

[Bournemouth](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/bournemouth) in the [Premier League](https://www.thisisanfield.com/liverpool-fc/premier-league) this afternoon, in what represents a must-win game for the Reds.

Roberto Firmino had two goals and three assists in Liverpool's inevitable return to the win column, an emphatic 9-0 clattering of Bournemouth at Anfield,

Thiago Alcantara and Naby Keita, for both of whom injuries have marred their respective Liverpool careers, bring something very different to the midfield, but they could both be out just the same. Obviously, the fixture makers haven’t let up on Bournemouth, who will have faced half of the big-six sides just four games into the season at the final whistle on Saturday. QUESTIONABLE: Dominic Solanke (ankle), Junior Stanislas (groin) Roberto Firmino begs a question: Jurgen Klopp has preferred to go in several other directions at center forward over the past season-plus, but Firmino was all over the pitch as the focal point of this dismantling of Bournemouth. Liverpool could be without as many as seven first- or second-choice players on Saturday, with the centers of defense and midfield decimated by injuries. The Cherries have since lost 4-0 at Man City and 3-0 vs Arsenal.

Liverpool claimed their biggest ever Premier League win as Roberto Firmino and Luis Díaz both scored twice in a 9-0 rout of Bournemouth.

Díaz ended the exhibition as he had opened it, scoring with a header from the substitute Tsimikas’s corner. It was never tested here, although he was able to exhibit his attacking process with a stunning third goal when breaking through Bournemouth’s midfield and following Anfield’s instruction to shoot after a one-two with Firmino. Jordan Henderson wore a vest that read: “RIP Olivia YNWA” and dedicated victory to the murdered child. The Brazil international produced three assists and a goal in the opening 31 minutes and, to be blunt, extracted the Michael out of Scott Parker’s outclassed team. The Egypt international’s cross struck Firmino and Elliott swept a superb left-foot finish into the bottom corner from 20 yards. Harvey’s proud father eventually got the jacket back and Liverpool, after a midweek dressing down from Jürgen Klopp, got their season back on track in record fashion too.

Liverpool blew away Bournemouth at Anfield to put its early-season struggles behind it, with Roberto Firmino scoring two goals and setting up three more.

Manchester City also showed that it can never be counted out after the defending champion found itself trailing by two goals for the second straight game. Arsenal, the only team to start the season with three wins, had a chance to maintain its perfect record when it played Fulham at home in the late game. After a winless start to the season and a dispiriting loss to its archrival, Liverpool set out to make a statement against Bournemouth on Saturday.

Liverpool in staggering NINE-goal demolition job; $86m star's hat-trick saves City: EPL Wrap.

Getting to be the best version of ourselves. Of course we were really happy,” Ten Hag said. We scored wonderful goals,” Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp said. In the 70th minute, Haaland prodded home and the Norwegian sealed his hat-trick in the 81st minute. Sterling doubled his tally in the 63rd minute as he tapped in from Reece James’ cross before Barnes squeezed in a low shot three minutes later. City equalised in the 62nd minute when Phil Foden’s cross reached Haaland and the former Borussia Dortmund striker headed his first home goal since joining in the close season. Virgil van Dijk headed in Andrew Robertson’s corner on the stroke of half-time as Liverpool scored five in the first half of a Premier League game for the first time. Fabio Carvalho’s first goal since his summer move from Fulham made it eight in the 80th minute. Chris Mepham’s own goal from Alexander-Arnold’s 46th minute cross was followed by Firmino grabbing the seventh in the 62nd minute. After three games without a win, the Reds rebounded by equalling Manchester United’s 9-0 wins against Ipswich in 1995 and Southampton in 2021, as well as Leicester’s thrashing of Southampton in 2019. Trent Alexander-Arnold rifled into the top corner from 25 yards in the 28th minute. On a remarkable day in the top flight, leaders Arsenal maintained their perfect start with a dramatic 2-1 win against Fulham.
