Liverpool defender Dan Agger hailed the Reds faithful after victory over Sunderland.
Supporters lined the pavements, waving flags and banners, echoing the display of solidarity demonstrated in January 2010, prior to the game against Tottenham Hotspur.
Back then, it was a gesture tinged with defiance in the face of crisis, but on Wednesday it was all about appreciation for a season which has so far exceeded all expectations.
"It reminded me a bit of the Champions League days," Agger told Liverpoolfc.com from the Anfield tunnel. "It was amazing.
"It just shows how good a support we have and we have to give everything to try and win these games, because when you get support like that...it's difficult to describe."
