Gary Lineker can’t get enough of the Reds
Liverpool are having a magnificent season in the Premier League and Champions League and Gary Lineker can’t get enough of them.
Manchester City may have won on Wednesday night, but Lineker is still full of praise for the Reds and how well they’ve competed this season.
Liverpool are now one game behind City after the Blues beat Manchester United during their game-in-hand fixture.
Typical, the one time the Red Devils needed to do us a favour they bailed out. What happened to the OGS revolution?

It’s a bitter pill to swallow, but there is definitely a silver lining at the end of it all and it is this: Liverpool have played amazing football, and if it wasn’t for another freak side would be running away with the Premier League.
To come so close in the Champions League last season and to battle, fight and scratch domestically is heartbreaking – but this is a good side and Klopp will do good things with them. Just be patient.
And if that hurdle on Wednesday night didn’t go the team’s way, they just have to get through Barcelona over two legs and face a very real prospect of winning in Europe.
Would a Champions League triumph be better than the Premier League? Hard to tell, but it’ll ensure the season ends with a sweet note.
All Klopp can do now is keep entertaining the fans, keep entertaining Lineker and keep on picking up three points in the hope that City drop some, somewhere down the line.
You never know. This is sport and stranger things have happened.
Liverpool take on Huddersfield Town on Saturday in a game that should be fairly easy for the boys in red. Town haven’t had the relegation bump like Fulham, and appear to be a dead side walking.
Manchester City are a sensational side. The fact that Liverpool are only one point adrift of them is a huge achievement. Liverpool are an outstanding side. The fact that Manchester City are one point ahead of them is an enormous achievement. What a season.
