...And Daniel Sturridge got all three of them.
Is Liverpool capable of challenging for the title?
It's still way too early to tell.
But beating Manchester United, even without coach Ferguson, is a step in the right direction.
And it should be pointed out the FC Liverpool is the only remaining team with a perfect record, in the Premier League, now.
It all started with a non-impressive win at home against Stoke, in which they were lucky that the visitors missed a penalty. But then the win against Aston Villa, who had managed to inflict a defeat on Arsenal at Emirates Stadium, and had given Chelsea a good run for their money at Stamford Bridge, suggested some good form.
And then, of course, at least in my opinion, Liverpool was the better side, for most of the match, against last season's champions.
Really, Manchester United, despite more and more pressing need to score, always seemed to me to play much more chaotically, and in a disorganized fashion, than Liverpool, at Anfield, today.
Five points difference, in the league tables, after only three matches played, between Liverpool and Manchester U. (in favour of The Reds)! I'm sure it would have been extremely hard to find a Liverpool fan to anticipate such a string of results before the season started.
However, a league break, like the one coming up due to international play, is seldom a good break for teams that have a surprisingly good run going. So, I can't wait to see how Liverpool will be continuing their campaign afterwards.
