John Aldridge: Why Liverpool now need to change their targets for this seasonAfter their thrilling 4-3 win against Champions League favourites Manchester City at Anfield in their last Premier League game, Aldridge suggests Liverpool are emerging as dark horses to claim the biggest prize in club football. "Liverpool hammered the Champions League favourites at Anfield and that win should inspire them to believe they can win the biggest prize in European football this season," he states. Aldo suggests this may be a year for a dark horse to emerge as Champions League winners, with so many of Europe’s top clubs enduring challenging seasons. “Barcelona and Real Madrid have dominated the Champions League over the last few years, but both of the Spanish giants have had some problems this season. Now they should target the ultimate glory in the Champions League."
