Gary Neville has backed Manchester City to retain their Premier League crown and fears it could be a walkover.
The champions won the title for a second successive year in May following a dramatic final day comeback to beat Aston Villa at the Etihad. It was their fourth title in four years under Pep Guardiola as their domestic dominance continues and they've bolstered their ranks by signing superstar Erling Haaland.
It means they will do away with their false 9 system and play with a conventional striker - giving them yet another dimension. Liverpool finished a point behind City last term, but Neville feels as if the Reds may struggle to keep pace with their rivals this term - who are odd-ons to reclaim their title.
