Liverpool chief executive Peter Moore says a long-overdue Premier League title would sit alongside their Champions League triumph as a "barometer of success" for the club.

Jurgen Klopp's side won a sixth European Cup in June, less than a month after they were pipped by Manchester City to the league title by a single point. The league resumes on Saturday with Liverpool eight points clear of City and favourites to win their first top-flight title for 30 years.

"I think that is what our fans want," Moore told the Press Association. "We were so close last year, 97 points, and in any other year we would have won it.

"But the club goes on and I think that (a league title), for many of our fans, would sit alongside our Champions League triumph as the barometer of success."
