Man City desperation proves Paul Merson has missed the point with Liverpool Champions League claim

If you were to ask both Liverpool and Manchester City at the start of the season which trophy they would rather win, the answers would probably come back different.

For the Reds, being Premier League champions is something that was the pinnacle of achievements prior to their 2019/20 triumph. And the lack of a trophy parade and celebration in front of a packed Anfield somewhat scuppered that moment, so much so that a desire to lift the title more than any other still remains.

But for Man City, you expect that the one trophy they want more than any other is the one that they are yet to possess - the Champions League. This final week of the season could each respective trophy go to the other club, as was the case in 2018/19.
