"Story of my life" - Jurgen Klopp references 20 year old failure as Liverpool fall short

Jurgen Klopp claimed finishing second was "the story of my life" after Liverpool were pipped to the Premier League title on the final day.

It was deja vu from three years ago as Manchester City fell behind and then recovered to maintain their one point lead at the top. Liverpool knew beating Wolves was all they could do but they needed a favour from Steven Gerrard and Aston Villa at the Etihad.

For a while it looked as if they might get it as Matty Cash and Philippe Coutinho had them 2-0 ahead after 70 minutes. But three goals in five minutes turned the game around and City sealed a dramatic title triumph, their fourth in five years as Liverpool were forced to settle for second.
