It seems that Arsenal is getting all the attention in the media when discussing the team to challenge Manchester City for the title whilst Liverpool are going under the radar. This is probably because Arsenal finished a close second to Manchester City last season. But it must be remembered that Liverpool finished a point behind Manchester City two seasons ago with 92 points whilst challenging for the quadruple. Also, the current Liverpool squad contains many players from that season and some were part of the Premier League and Champions League winning sides. Klopp seems to have a greater prowess of taking a team close to/winning a title.
In addition, Liverpool have had more difficult fixtures this season, they have played four of the big six (+ Newcastle) away whereas Arsenal have only played two and are still yet to play Manchester City away.
We’re getting results but we still look like we have a hole in the middle of the pitch. The right hand side we conceeded twice (though once from a corner). We will have to see what happens when Salah goes to Afcon. If we get wins all the way through the holiday period, I think we are in the race.
Well anyone that knows anything is pretty damn aware of what they could do this season. It’s a 3 horse race between Liverpool, arsenal and City. And tbh its bloody refreshing thats its actually a contest this year.
It’s game week 14.
R u blind or not able to read the table they are 2nd. How does someone not notice that?
Most people are predicting them above arsenal, they just seem to be less of a talking point since people are used to them.
I think everyone is aware that Liverpool is in the running. They’re not quite as complete as prior iterations but they have seemingly unlimited firepower and as good a manager as you can ask for
Trust me, they are
Kind of I guess. We’ve heard a lot about City, for obvious reasons. Then we’ve heard about Spurs and Villa for punching above their weight.
We’ve heard quite a bit about Chelsea and United too, but for being shite.
You don’t really read much about Liverpool or Arsenal to be fair. Just ticking along.
They are second. Pretty sure they are on everyone’s radar.
Shhh, don’t Jinx it.

All the pundits have City 1st and Liverpool 2nd. They hate Arsenal lmao
They’re invisible on VAR though.
No?
The title race is pretty open, Liverpool are still in it. Man City are still more likely to go on a run.
Don’t know why people try to paint a nonsense narrative.
There’s no such thing as “under the radar” when you’re talking about a club with the most obnoxious fan base and who control half of the football media.
