John Aldridge has warned fans and pundits not to jump to conclusions that Liverpool are favourites to win the Premier League title this season.

Liverpool have been installed as the favourites to win the Premier League title with the bookies. But I’m not getting too carried away yet.

Arne Slot will be taking charge of only his 12th league game as Liverpool manager when his team travel to Southampton this afternoon and you can’t even start to think about getting your hands on the trophy at this stage of the season.

What I will say is that Liverpool have a better chance of https://ufabet999.app winning the title now than I felt they had heading into this season. The uncertainty over how the transition from Jurgen Klopp to Slot would work out was one of the big factors in my pessimism last summer.

Despite their impressive run of form at the top of the Premier League.

Liverpool legend John Aldridge has written in his Sunday World column about Arne Schlott’s title hopes this season.

“A week in football can change everything and the Premier League table could look very different after today’s fixtures end.”

“I was surprised to hear so many experience pundits say Liverpool the team with a chance to win the title. After their win over Manchester City last weekend. Being nine points clear in the table is a great feeling and the atmosphere at Anfield was electric. When the team beat City. But we are only a third of the way through the season and top spot is not permanent.”

“Wednesday’s 3-3 draw at Newcastle gave the chasing side the chance to close the gap. If Arsenal and Chelsea win today, the gap will reduce to just four points. Yes, Liverpool will have a game in hand after the Merseyside derby was postpon yesterday due to the storm. That hit England. A derby against Everton will certainly not be easy for Liverpool.”

“You still have to consider what might happen over the long season. Before making any decisions in early December,” Aldridge said.
