'Winning the quadruple is nigh on IMPOSSIBLE': Steve McManaman dismisses Liverpool's chances of landing a historic four trophies this season as 'they have to be perfect all the time'

Former Liverpool midfielder Steve McManaman has described his old club's pursuit of an unprecedented quadruple as 'nigh on impossible' despite their progression into the Champions League semi-finals on Wednesday.

A 3-3 draw with Benfica at Anfield was enough to send Jurgen Klopp's side into the last four after a 6-4 victory on aggregate in the quarter-finals.

Liverpool clinched the Carabao Cup in February, face Manchester City at Wembley on Saturday for a place in the FA Cup Final and are also battling the Citizens in the race for the Premier League title but McManaman says winning all four trophies will be a step too far.
