Here are the Liverpool morning headlines for Thursday May 14.

Latest Premier League restart date revealed

While the Premier League hoped to get back on track on June 12, the daily telegraph reports that the restart has been delayed to June 19.

It is understood that the socially distanced training sessions will begin next week, after managers and player representatives of the 20 Premier League clubs held meetings on Wednesday and accepted that proposal.

The first phase of the return to training will see groups of five players working with three coaches.

Concerns remain as to whether there will be enough time to fully prepare the teams for the June 12 games, hence the need to delay games for at least a week.

Paul Scholes about whom he escaped

Manchester United were able to sign most of the players they wanted during Paul Scholes’ time at the club, but the former Red Devils midfielder admitted on Savage Social that they didn’t get all of them.

One of his goals ended at Anfield instead.

“I always remember two or three that came. I remember Harry Kewell being one and you knew he was a good player, “he said.

“It was brilliant. I think he ended up rejecting us and going to Liverpool, it really didn’t bother us that much. “

The Australian played 139 games for Liverpool during five years of injury at the club.

Liverpool home win almost spelled disaster

Liverpool were slated to play their last home game of 2019/20 last weekend, and they surely would have been parading for the Premier League trophy around Anfield after the game.

The coronavirus crisis has delayed that moment for now, leaving Blackburn Rovers as the only club to lift the trophy at the Liverpool home.

Dan Kay has recounted the dramatic final day of the 1994/95 season, in which a team of Rovers managed by Reds legend Kenny Dalglish were Anfield’s visitors. They were two points ahead of Manchester United, who were at West Ham that day, but with a lower goal difference.

As Kay explains: “With both games near halting time still locked at 1-1, Liverpool received a free kick to the edge of the Blackburn area and Jamie Redknapp went ahead to hit home a 25-yard strike to end the season of the Reds on a halt, but what would it mean to the other Reds in the northwest?

From a Liverpool perspective, everything went well. However, it was one of the most dramatic last days the Premier League has seen.
