Can Liverpool Clinch the Premiership Title this Year?

Liverpool are on a great run of form at the moment, and if they continue their great performances surely they will strongly challenge for the title this year.

They have been saying for years that "this year will be our year", and they have not finished higher than third. With the manager now taking more control, and increased English vocabulary(!), his team now does more than "movve ze baal avout vell."

It's the same situation as Arsenal winning the Champions League—can it be done?

With Fernando Torres returning form injury, can Liverpool extend their goal tally and increase their win rate? if they can do this and keep up with the fine form of Chelsea at the moment, they really do have a good chance.

Rafael Benitez has, at last, sorted out a consistent squad with not many rotations now, and with Robbie Keane also hitting top form, they will surely be top contenders for the title.

However, Liverpool have had their problems off the pitch, and with the chairman's position under scrutiny, you have to wonder if the morale was been affected on the pitch and their form dropped.
