Liverpool have not won the Premier League title since 1990 but they came close to breaking their drought in 2014.

Brendan Rodgers implemented a high-pressing system and their charge was led by Luis Suarez, with the Uruguayan putting in one of the greatest individual performances in history while he was ably supported by Daniel Sturridge and a fledgling Raheem Sterling.

The Reds blew all and sundry in their way and set a then club-record of posting 11 consecutive Premier League wins and the fact that they were free from continental action meant that many believed they would break their duck.

However, for all of Liverpool's brilliance, one club that refused to go away was Manchester City and the two clubs set a precedence for future races when they went neck-and-neck in the title race.

With four matches to go, Liverpool marked the 25th anniversary of the Hillsborough disaster by welcoming Manchester City to Anfield, holding a four-point advantage (though the Mancunians had two games in hand).

A victory would have seen them go seven points clear at the top and they seemed on course to achieve this when Raheem Sterling and Martin Skrtel put them 2-0 up inside 26 minutes.

Manchester City, however, rallied in the second half and equalized through David Silva and a Glen Johnson own goal but a late curler from Philippe Coutinho after a Kompany mistake handed Liverpool all three points.

Anfield erupted at full-time and Steven Gerrard rallied his teammates, telling them the rather ominous charge of 'we do not let this slip' and while many might have believed this was a milestone match in Liverpool's quest to break their Premier League duck, it sadly proved to not be the case.
