Stats: A 2013-14 season comparison
While the headline figure of Liverpool's 2013-14 campaign was of course the leap from seventh to second in the Barclays Premier League, the end-of-season statistics show considerable progress in a range of departments.
The Reds took the race for the championship until the final day, building a platform to challenge on the back of an 11-match winning streak, which ensured Champions League qualification with three matches to spare.
With the dust now having settled on 10 months of drama, we pored through the facts and the figures to compare and contrast with the numbers from Rodgers' maiden year at the helm.
