Gary Neville has admitted that Liverpool have little chance of winning the Premier League title this season.The Reds are currently second, one point behind Arsenal, ahead of tomorrow’s game at Anfield. It is in good condition.
Neville said there was hope for Liverpool, even if they could not be considered title favourites. In an interview with Sky Sports, the Manchester United legend revealed that Jurgen Klopp’s genius could throw Liverpool off balance in ways they hadn’t previously considered. “I said Arsenal will win the league because I think after a treble there will be injuries, after a treble there will be complacency and defeat. I think Arsenal will keep their key players fit,” said Neville.”I think Arsenal are City’s only rivals.
I wasn’t interested in Liverpool before [last Sunday’s game against United].”If we strengthen our midfield in January, it can only be because of Jurgen Klopp, but I think Arsenal are a good team.”Klopp leads Liverpool’s attack If Liverpool win the league this season, it won’t all be down to Jurgen and his coaching.
With Neville seemingly denied here, the Reds have what Arsenal lack in their squad
Joe Gomez was another player who played a big part in the winning side, while Diogo Jota, Luis Diaz and Ibrahima Konate helped City go to the end of the 2021/2022 season with 92 points. Arsenal have more title winners in their squad but they did it with City. Apart from Gabriel Jesus and Oleksandr Zinchenko, the Gunners have no Premier League trophies.
Even manager Mikel Arteta has only won against City and City. Of course, it doesn’t mean much if you can beat the competition. But this year will be really difficult.The city can certainly bounce back, and it won’t take much to do so. When it comes to who could actually challenge for the throne, Neville cannot rule out Liverpool. There’s always a chance with Jurgen and the Reds’ world-class spine. Tomorrow is big.
