Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher have agreed that Liverpool are more likely to challenge Manchester City in the Premier League title race next season than Arsenal. The Gunners were once eight points clear of Pep Guardiola's side but, after picking up just six points from a possible 15 in April, they surrendered top spot to the reigning champions.
Despite having spent 248 days in first-place, the north Londoners have lost sight of the league title. In fact, no team in the English top-flight has ever led the table for long without going on to win the competition.
Speaking on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football show, Neville admitted that he hopes Arsenal can carry over their form into next season but named Liverpool as the most capable challenger. The former Manchester United defender believes that Jurgen Klopp's side will bounce back after having disappointed this season.
