JAMIE REDKNAPP: If Liverpool can beat Man City and Chelsea to the Premier League title it'll be GREAT for English football

It's the time when people start talking about awards, but there is no question Liverpool should win the double. 
Luis Suarez has been magnificent and Brendan Rodgers is a class act.
They are the player and manager of the year. Liverpool had success under Gerard Houllier and Rafa Benitez, but never played with the same style as Rodgers’ side.

Top of the table

Last year they were 28 points off the title and now they lead by two. That is an incredible turnaround. Glen Johnson said it would be good for neutrals if Liverpool won the title, but it would be great for English football full stop.
They play such fantastic football with a British manager and Sunday had six Englishmen in their starting XI.
Suarez and Rodgers should win the individual awards, but they will want to make it a magnificent treble with the title.
