Former Real Madrid striker, Michael Owen, believes Liverpool could prove the biggest rivals to Manchester City in the Premier League title race this season.
Owen spoke after watching Liverpool thrash Manchester United 3-0 at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The former England international believes it will take a special team to stop Arne Slot’s side from winning the Premier League title.
Recall that Liverpool failed to win the Premier League title last season after finishing in top four position behind the likes of Manchester City, and Arsenal.
“If you ask Pep Guardiola who his biggest danger was, it would be a toss-up between Arsenal and Liverpool,” Owen told Premier League Productions.
“At the start of the season, he might have said Arsenal because you know what you are going to get – same manager, same players plus they have added one or two – but there was a little bit of a question about what would happen at Liverpool with the new manager.
“Of course the one good thing from a Liverpool point of view is they kept the squad.
“There were questions about Liverpool but after three games you think “wow” it is going to take a special team to stop them. They have just swatted United aside.”
