'It will be tinged with disappointment': Steve McManaman admits absence of crowds will take shine off Premier League title win and claims Liverpool team 'will go down as the best'

Liverpool winning the Premier League title behind closed doors would be 'tinged with disappointment', according to their former midfielder Steve McManaman.

Fans are prohibited from entering Premier League grounds due to the coronavirus pandemic, meaning the Reds' final nine matches will be played in empty stadiums.

Jurgen Klopp's men are 25 points clear at the top of the table and require six points to clinch their first top-flight title in 30 years.

'It'll be fantastic when it happens but the fans are not going to be there,' McManaman told BBC Radio 5 Live.
