Liverpool's 29-year wait for a League title goes on but their former defender Mark Lawrenson feels the club has a bright future.

Whatever happens against Spurs, I don't think you could accuse Liverpool of underachieving this season.

That was the moment for me. If Mane had scored then, I think they would have gone on to win the game and also the title - they would have opened up a 10-point lead that would have been hard to claw back.How can Reds improve next year? But it is not like the last couple of summers when it has been easy to identify what this team needs to improve it.

You might argue that they don't really need any one position desperately, but I think it would be nice if they could get an attacking midfield player, of the sort they have not had since Philippe Coutinho left for Barcelona in January 2018. The way the season has gone, you could not say they have missed him, but in future they will have to look at having more ways to win games, especially against teams who just sit in.On the evidence of the past few months, Liverpool can barely afford to draw a game next season if they are going to keep up with City - who have a total of 198 points from their past two campaigns.

For me, the only certainty at Stamford Bridge is that Eden Hazard will be leaving and, with their best player seemingly on his way out and a possible transfer ban looming, I cannot tip them to challenge.
