“I hope not, but they’re showing all the signs,” Osman, who was released by Everton last summer, said. “They’re certainly going to be up there.”

Liverpool have been in wonderful form over the season so far, with their attacking play catching the eye.

The Reds have scored 30 goals in their first 11 league matches of the season.

Liverpool have been able to blow away the likes of Watford and Hull City, while they have also picked up impressive victories in matches against Arsenal and Chelsea.

The Reds are unbeaten in 12 matches in all competitions, and have a massive amount of momentum behind them.
