Liverpool are capable of winning four trophies.

Winning is a matter of course.

Besides the emphatic 4-0 victory, how else did Liverpool dominate Tottenham in the second leg of the English League Cup semi-final? They had 10 shots on target while their opponents had none. Liverpool had five times as many shots on target as their opponents (26-5). Liverpool had seven times as many touches in the opponent's penalty area (55-8)...

Liverpool have reached the final of the English League Cup.

Tottenham aren't weak, but Liverpool are too strong. That's the most common sentiment among Tottenham fans after witnessing their team's humiliating defeat. "Don't blame Ange (Tottenham manager Ange Postecoglu), because they (Liverpool) are too strong," this comment flooded Tottenham fan forums even before the match ended. In truth, Tottenham were completely outmatched, partly because they adopted a defensive strategy, trying to protect their slight advantage from the first leg (Tottenham won 1-0), but to no avail. No matter how they played, Liverpool ultimately won convincingly!

The real discussion isn't about the match itself, or even Liverpool's seemingly inevitable victory. This win opens up far more intriguing topics: How far will manager Arne Slot go in his first season in charge of Liverpool? Nothing is impossible for this Liverpool team. The Liverpool players attacked effortlessly and smoothly, as if they were just practicing, not competing for a place in a final.

To say this is Slot's first season managing Liverpool is completely inaccurate. Slot had to replace the legendary Juergen Klopp, facing immense pressure from curiosity, expectations, and skepticism. There were even conspiracy theories: if Klopp decided to leave Liverpool, did it mean he felt the team had no more potential? Or that he himself could no longer achieve success in coaching (Klopp had moved on to a different role, working for Red Bull GmbH)?

Last season, Klopp aimed for a quadruple in his farewell season with Liverpool. Ultimately, he only won the League Cup. Now, Slot starts by reaching the League Cup final, and will he end the season with an unimaginable achievement of a quadruple?

WHAT CAN WE LEARN FROM THE ODDS?

Right now, the odds of Liverpool finishing the season without any trophies are 9/1 (bet 1, win 9). This is a very unlikely outcome. Meanwhile, the odds of Liverpool winning all four competitions (Premier League, FA Cup, League Cup, and Champions League) are 50/1. What do these odds mean?

If a team has odds of 3/1 for winning the league title midway through the season, then that's undoubtedly the strongest contender (never two teams are rated that way at the same time). And in principle, with odds of 3/1 for the strongest contender in a single league, the odds of that team winning four leagues simultaneously would be 81/1 (bet 1, win 81). The 50/1 odds mentioned above are the lowest payout on the current betting market. The highest payout for Liverpool winning four leagues is currently 80/1.

In short, the odds offered by all bookmakers currently show they are wary of Liverpool winning four trophies this season. That's an extremely likely outcome based on simple calculations. At the start of the season, the odds for Liverpool winning four trophies were 2,500/1. The payout has decreased by 50 times, meaning the difficulty of Liverpool winning all four competitions has also decreased by 50 times!

Liverpool have reached the League Cup final (and are the favorites), as mentioned. They are almost certainly the only title contender in the Premier League. Liverpool are also the top favorites in the Champions League. In the FA Cup, Liverpool's next opponent is only second-division side Plymouth Argyle.
