Tieing the Premier League records for goals scored and margin of victory, Liverpool strode to a totally one-sided victory at Anfield, as they shook off the slumbers of a sluggish start to the season in some style. Firmino had a hand in five goals, while Alexander-Arnold was back to his best and scored a beauty during a dominant first half. Bournemouth could barely lay a finger on the Reds' shadows even after the interval, and they may take some time to recover from such a thrashing.
