"That Chelsea game, which saw an 11-game winning streak snapped when the Blues claimed a 2-0 win at Anfield blew the title race wide open and has gone down in Liverpool infamy for that slip by Gerrard."
"That one still hurts, particularly because it cost us the title, Skrtel admits. It was doubly sad for Stevie. Being a club legend and having such bad luck, we all felt for him."
"The title was so close but we had to accept the outcome. That's football. Sometimes it's beautiful, but sometimes it can be very harsh."
"But the way we performed in the spring of 2014, the way we dominated, was incredible."
During the 2013/14 season, Liverpool almost ended a lengthy title drought, driven by stars like Suarez and Sturridge. A winning streak placed them atop the Premier League, showcasing strong performances from the team, particularly in spring 2014. However, a critical 2-0 loss to Chelsea halted their momentum and is infamous for Gerrard's slip. This misstep proved pivotal, costing Liverpool the title, which remains a painful memory for the players involved, especially club legend Steven Gerrard.
