With all due respect, gonna have to hard disagree with you and @Iftikhar .
I’m not sure how long you both have been watching the Reds — I can certainly understand fans from the 70s and 80s feeling like celebrating past success is not advisable — but my experience between becoming a fan in 2007 and 2019 only featured one Carling Cup. To be clear, I love the team and the club and would watch them if they were in the Championship, but for all the good intent, it’s unconscionable that we never won any silverware otherwise, particularly during the Torres years, so I will cherish the silverware we do win.
And, let’s be real: as much as some fans might say that we “should be winning it” given that we won it 18 times up to 1990, reality is we have been pretty damn well far from it for most of the last 30 years…even in our pre-Klopp, “close call” years ('02, '09, '14) the house was not built on solid foundations. What I mean is that, despite some mercurial talent, it would be hard to argue that we were better than Arsenal '02, United '09, or City '14 — so it was little surprise that we crumbled the next year. Only in '19 did it actually seem like we were primed to actually take the next step. We may have been a big club during those 30 years, but we were definitely not regularly contending for the title, even if we thought we should be. And, given the changing financial dynamics in the Premier League, it was not inconceivable that we wouldn’t win the title in the near future before Jurgen came along (and perhaps even after, until ~2019).
Finally, it’s easy to forget that — given the unprecedented situation we found ourselves in with COVID — there was significant public sentiment towards cancelling the season. Sure, nothing ever came of it, but there were numerous people in high places calling for it (and not just wingnuts like Karren Brady), which only intensified when the Eredivisie did not award a trophy. It wasn’t until Greg Clarke, Chariman of the FA, came out and categorically ruled that out, but that wasn’t until May 11, so there was a ~2 month period where it didn’t seem like the title would happen.
With that in mind, I have no shame in over-celebrating it.
