Having put so much into Tuesday’s clash with PSG at Anfield, Liverpool simply looked spent.

For supporters, there will hopefully still be the small matter of a Premier League title to celebrate.

However, given how overwhelmed and overworked the Liverpool squad have appeared recently, nobody should be taking that as a given just yet.

One man who is backing the Reds all way, though, is Newcastle legend Alan Shearer.

After watching his beloved Magpies finally win a trophy, Shearer had some nice words for the beaten finalists.

Along with TV presenters Ant and Dec, Shearer is perhaps the most famous Newcastle supporter in the country.

Terrific as he was during his time with the Magpies, the prolific striker was never able to win a trophy with them.

As the cameras panned to Shearer on Sunday, he was clearly soaking up and enjoying the moment.

But Shearer also has a soft spot for Liverpool.

The former England man won the Premier League title at Anfield with Blackburn and used to live not far from the stadium during his time with Rovers.

As a result, it was perhaps not a surprise to see Shearer share a word for the runners-up whilst enjoying the celebrations on Sunday night.

“I know I’m p—– but …….

Liverpool are a great club and will win the league and have been brilliant this season,” he posted on X.

“But the Geordies absolutely smashed them today and deserved it….”

Shearer might be confident, and given they are 12 points clear of Arsenal with nine games to play, there is good reason to believe Liverpool are winning the Premier League.

However, after the past week supporter’s have had to endure, it’s only normal they’ll be feeling more than a little jittery.

The truth of the matter is that Liverpool need five wins out of nine to ensure the Premier League title returns to Anfield.

The team look shattered.

From this position, it would be the greatest collapse in Premier League history for Liverpool to throw the title away.
