So that's all from me then, make sure you stick around on Tribe for coverage of all your favourite sports, including Rory Morrow's commentary of Crystal Palace hosting Manchester United shortly. For now though, I'm Jonny Lawrence, and we'll see you next time.
Top of the tree for Liverpool it is then, even if it could only be temporary. It's the Carabao Cup next up for them, with West Ham coming to visit before they head off to Wolverhampton next up in the league. Bournemouth sit in 13th, with their next match up at home to winless Saints.
It's not a terrible performance from Bournemouth, but there's only so much positivity you can have when you go down by three goals. They looked defensively ragged at times, purely from the pace of Liverpool's attacks, and despite keeping Salah relatively quiet, they failed to cover the rest of the Reds' front line. Up top, there were plenty of chances to nab a goal, but Kelleher wasn't having any of it today.
A fairly comfortable outing for the Reds then as they breeze past Bournemouth with three first half goals. Once they got in front it looked plain sailing, and frankly with a little more clinical play they could have had one or two more if needed. Still, they can thank Kelleher for their clean sheet as he ably stood in for the injured Alisson as well. Diaz and Darwin were the standouts, not just as goalscorers but also creators, looking to spark something every time they got on the ball.
Time up on this game now, and it's Liverpool who nab three goals, and three points at home.
90+4'
Bournemouth looking for one last chance, with plenty of numbers forward but Cook has a shot blocked, and the recycled ball out right cannot find any cracks in this Liverpool defence.
90+3'
BLOCK! Chiesa steals in and wins it inside the Cherries' half. He finds Salah in front of him, who dances across the top of the box before finding Gakpo towards the left side of goal. He nudges it to his right and lets fly, but the defence has a leg in the road.
+4
89'
Alex Scott has a crack now from range, but it's Kelleher in the road again, this save much more routine.
