Would Istanbul glory pip Liverpool's 2005 heroics?
The idea of this season ending in glory for Liverpool seems little more than a pipe dream, if we're being completely honest.
It has been a disastrous campaign for the Reds, with injuries depleting them and their Premier League title defence going out in a whimper. Not only that, but a top-four finish now looks highly unlikely, too.
