'It would be an absolute shame': Brendan Rodgers hopes Jurgen Klopp doesn't repeat his Liverpool title near-miss six years ago

Brendan Rodgers hopes the current Liverpool team do not have to go through what he and his Reds side did in 2014 by narrowly missing out on the Premier League title.

Liverpool looked all but certain to end their 30-year wait for a top flight crown this term with a seemingly unassailable lead of 25 points at the top of the table.

However the coronavirus pandemic which has wreaked havoc across sports all round the world has put the coronation of Jurgen Klopp's side as champions in doubt, with talks over how to continue or end the season still ongoing.
