It’s party time for Liverpool fans – and deservedly so.
Following Manchester City’s 2-1 defeat at Chelsea on Thursday night, Jurgen Klopp’s men were confirmed as champions for the first time in 30 years, with supporters flocking in their droves outside Anfield to toast a job well done.
Liverpool fans were understandably unable to contain their emotions, with delirious fans joining together as red flares were set off as the parties started to get underway.
Kenny Dalglish, who won three league titles as Liverpool manager, told BT Sport: “I think back then if you’d have said it would take 30 years you’d have been arrested and sectioned, but sometimes things happen.
“The last two years since (manager) Jurgen (Klopp) came in, it has been very, very positive all the way.
“He’s been fantastic and he epitomises everything that Liverpool stands for. He respects everyone at the club.
“It’s not just a one-off as last year they came within a point of it and won the European Cup and a World Club Cup too, so onwards and upwards and I think there will be plenty more days to look forward to as long as Jurgen is there.
“It takes a fantastic dressing room to win things. You don’t win anything with division, it takes solidarity, and Liverpool from top to bottom have been together.”
