Liverpool hero Ince: Uproar if Reds denied title

Liverpool hero Paul Ince expects the Premier League to resume in order for the Reds to be confirmed title winners.

There have been calls for the top-flight campaign to be declared null and void because of the coronavirus pandemic.

But runaway leaders Liverpool would be the real losers as they stand on the brink of ending their 30-year wait to be crowned champions.

Former England midfielder Ince said: “It's a tricky situation because you can't please everyone.

“Can you imagine 30 years of waiting to win the season and, when you're on the brink, they end up making the season null and void?

“The uproar that would cause in Liverpool. Would we rather upset one team to make everyone else happy or give it to Liverpool?

“We have to complete the season whatever happens and, if that's in May or June, you're only talking nine games.

“Whether it's behind closed doors or not, that's for others to decide but there's too much on the line for everybody, not just Liverpool."
