# Liverpool fans have high hopes with new spine of the team

**A lot of Liverpool fans are daring to dream that they could finally win the league again and end their club’s 28-year drought. The last time a Liverpool side won the league was in 1990 and since then, arch-rivals Manchester United have won the league a whopping 13 times, however, the Reds are starting to believe that this year could be their year.**

This season has provided Liverpool fans with the best chance they’ve had in years to win the Premier League. Jurgen Klopp has made some superb signings this summer and it looks like the final few pieces of the puzzle are coming together now. All the club needs is the confirmation of Alisson’s transfer and then to wrap up a deal for Nabil Fekir and they’ll be in the driver’s seat to win the Premier League.

If Liverpool did win the premier league it would be mostly down to the fact that Klopp has turned this side around. The German took over when Brendan Rodgers was sacked back in October 2015 and since then he’s massively improved the spine of the side. The club now has a strong central-midfield that can be relied upon with Fabinho brought in to sit in front of the back-four whilst the centre-back partnership of Virgil van Dijk and Dejan Lovren looks like one that could stand up against even the most dangerous attacks.

> Great to see the [@LFC](https://twitter.com/LFC?ref_src=twsrc%5Etfw) at the top table again thanks to the backing of the owners. Gutted for The Ox tho. Still need more to win it I think!

> Pay the money for the top players and you have a team for 4 or 5 seasons. Years of buying and selling players after 1 or 2 seasons will never work.
