Richard Keys and Andy Grey had differing opinions as as to whether or not Liverpool’s Premier League title hopes are sunk after their defeat to Crystal Palace at present.
A massively damaging week has seen the Reds drop 5 factors in two top-flight matches and go down 0-3 to Atalanta within the Europa League quarter-finals, all however ending their hopes of successful that competitors.
Talking on beIN SPORTS moments after the ultimate whistle at Anfield this afternoon as he seen the desolate faces on the LFC gamers, Keys mentioned: “After which there have been two. They know.
“It very a lot is dependent upon what Arsenal do towards Aston Villa shortly, however proper now you’d have to attract the conclusion that that marks the tip of Liverpool’s title chase.”

Did anybody count on this at present? There are many video games left, Richard, however of the three now, they give the impression of being the least possible.”
We’re with the previous Everton striker on this one – the final two league outcomes have been massively damaging for Liverpool’s title hopes, however they’re nonetheless solely two factors behind Manchester Metropolis, who started the day high of the desk.
With six matches nonetheless to play, it’s removed from implausible that Jurgen Klopp’s aspect may struggle again to elevate the trophy in 5 week’s time, however they actually can’t afford too many extra days like this one, the place they wasted so many possibilities towards Palace and ended up regretting it.
Down however not out – we preserve combating!
