Jamie Carragher fears Liverpool are still not giving up on the title race despite Manchester City failing to win every week.
The Reds have made a strong start to the 2023/24 season after rebuilding their squad in the summer and could spend Christmas at the top of the Premier League if they can beat Arsenal this weekend. But while he was delighted with Liverpool’s performance, former Anfield favorite Carragher is still unconvinced that Jurgen Klopp’s side are genuine title contenders despite an impressive start to the season.
However, he believes that the chances of winning this year’s race will be lower than in recent seasons. “If you look at Liverpool’s scoring record throughout the season they are one of the best teams in the country but if you look at their performances I’m not so sure,” Carragher told Sky Sports on Wednesday night . I think I need to be a little more confident.“There’s no better way to do that than to get a good result against top-flight Arsenal this weekend. But I think Liverpool might be a little further away from winning the title, I hope I’m wrong.“It might be a little bit different season than last season where we felt like we had to win almost every week.
The standards set by Liverpool and Manchester City for so long may be slightly different this season. Carragher admitted it may still be too early to tell where people expect Liverpool to be in the Premier League after the midfield overhaul is complete.
It was reorganized for the summer transfer window.He added: “People are looking for a new midfielder and Liverpool’s revival under Klopp will be similar. Maybe they will add a few more players, maybe a regular midfielder or another centre-back.” Then you can really find the title.
“That’s why Liverpool could be better this season in terms of performance and points. I think it could be a big surprise for most fans who are looking for cup competitions and a top four finish. It’s just a question: can stay there??” ” Location. “I think most people are not convinced.”
