Final league position 2022-23: 5th . Liverpool finished outside of the top four of the Premier League for the first time since the 2015-16 season. . This was the Reds' third game in the Premier League when both teams scored four or more goals; also 4-4 versus Arsenal on 21 April 2009 and 5-4 versus Norwich City on 23 January 2016. . In his final game for the club, aged 37 years and 143 days, James Milner became the oldest player to appear for Liverpool in the Premier League; previously Gary McAllister against Ipswich Town on 11 May 2002 (37 years and 136 days).
