The title chances of Liverpool, Arsenal, and Man City bluntly assessed by Peter Schmeichel.

Peter Schmeichel, a former goalkeeper for Manchester United, thinks Liverpool aren’t prepared to compete with Manchester City this year. So far in the new Premier League season, Jurgen Klopp’s team has been able to keep Pep Guardiola’s recent treble-winners in their sights.

While their opponents have won all five games, the Reds have won four and drawn one. Anfield chiefs brought in four midfielders to strengthen the team’s engine room during the transfer window, which was their main focus.

Josko Gvardiol, a Croatian defender, was signed by City for £90 million in order to fill all of the positions left open. Because of their purportedly superior back line, Schmeichel believes the defending champions are currently still one step ahead of Liverpool. Liverpool won’t be able to keep up with Manchester City, in my opinion. I don’t believe [they] can,” the Danish analyst said during matchday live coverage of the Premier League. Arsenal could be the team, but that is a big might. “I don’t think anyone can stay with Man City, We just looked at that line-up today.

You look at their back four. How are you gonna compete with that? [Kyle] Walker, [Ruben] Dias, [Manuel] Akanji, and Gvardiol. You cannot match it, and Liverpool cannot match it for sure. I concur with Steve McManaman that they are extremely exposed at the back. “. Alongside the former shot-stopper, ex-Red McManaman was serving as a pundit, criticizing Liverpool’s defense before Schmeichel delivered his frank assessment. “When you watch Liverpool play, it’s obvious that they will score goals because of the way they play. But they will give them up,” the former midfielder said. “Because they are weak at the back, they will play interesting, thrilling games. There will be many ups and downs this season, so it will be exciting to watch Liverpool.

They will undoubtedly give up many goals. “. However, McManaman did note that Liverpool’s starting lineup is significantly stronger than it was at the beginning of the previous season because Luis Diaz and Diogo Jota have recovered from their protracted injuries.
