Portsmouth, Reading, Aston Villa, Wst Ham United, Wolverhampton.
Search through the first few weeks of most EPL seasons and the above teams have sat in first place after the first 3 or 4 matches of the season. Liverpool currently sit freshly atop the pile after their fourth game and the faithful are getting excited about it.
While it is very nice to be top (especially since it was 5 years since were here) it is not time for fans to get excited and proclaim we are going to take the title. If anything, most 'pool fans should be cautiously optimistic - for int he past, when we have got to excited and arrogant, karma has bitten us in a big way.
So my advice to all LFC supporters - enjoy the start but let us not get too cocky.
Enjoy the fact we put 6 past Derby and saw our new signings feature in the goals. Enjoy the fact that the only goals we have conceeded have been two penalties - although the second one was about as plausible as Madonna adopting a child because it was a good thing and not because it was the in thing to do at the time.
Apart from the dodgy penalty and the draw with Chelsea, the season has gone well. We are winning the matches we should be and are playing well.
Let us hope the winning and goal scoring continues.
Early losses by MU and Chelsea show how tight the season will be. More teams are competitive and so the boys in red need to be get maximum points.
Still, I am not all pessimistic. I want to enjoy this position for it has been a while.

I think Liverpool has what it takes to win the EPL this time around.
Everyone stay calm. Still fooking 34 games to go. Looooong way off but at least we aren't 7 points off the pace like we were last season!
Kopites know what false dawns are all about . . . older ones anyway
