Liverpool Manager Jurgen Klopp fears Manchester City “could run away” with the Premier League as the Red desperately fight to keep hold of their title.
The Cityzens are clear at the top of the Premier League after Gabriel Jesus sealed a 1-0 win against Sheffield United.
Manchester United’s title challenge suffered a second setback in four days as they failed to breakdown Arsenal in a 0-0 draw at the Emirates on Saturday after threwing away top spot with a shock 2-1 defeat to bottom-of-the-table Sheffield United in midweek
The Red Devils are now three points adrift of league leaders Manchester City having played a game more than their local rivals while the champions are seven points clear of the top spot.
Klopp when asked whether this might be the most exciting title race, with so many clubs in the mix, and if perhaps it could be won with the fewest points, a record belonging to Manchester United after their 1996-97 triumph with 75 on the board.
But the German warned that Guardiola’s men are looking nicely poised to claim the trophy back, with his own side’s chances hampered by injuries.
“Will it be the most exciting run-in with different teams in and around? Could be, but City could run away now as well. They’re in a good position, playing good football again,” he said.
“I don’t know, I don’t know if it will be the lowest amount of points, I don’t even know how many points are out there to get.
“What we see is it’s a difficult season for all teams, maybe apart from West Ham and Leicester look pretty good as well.
“So a lot of teams look good but we all have our ups and downs during the season.
“It’s for a sure a season when you need to be lucky with injuries, to be really on top of things. More so than in other years because of the amount of games in a specific period.
“But I can imagine watching from outside it’s really exciting, especially for a neutral fan. I don’t know who will be champions at the end of the season.”
These comments were shared on Twitter by Twitter and they had lots of City supporters talking.
SO, WHAT DID THESE MAN CITY FANS HAVE TO SAY ABOUT KLOPP’S COMMENT ON THE PREMIER TITTLE
Always talking about others, focus on your team Jurgen!
