Liverpool FC fans fume over Anthony Taylor referee appointment for pivotal Man City fixture

City and Liverpool are currently neck-and-neck at the top of the Premier League table with the Blues leading the way by just a point with eight games of the campaign remaining. As a result, whoever wins Sunday's bout at the Etihad will take the ascendency in the title race for the last few weeks of the season.
