The Liverpool manager also mentioned Chelsea, acknowledging the uncertainty surrounding their potential resurgence.
“If somebody would write City off that would be the biggest joke in the history of football,”
Arsenal are fighting and had a similar experience we had [against Fulham]. It feels really good, but anyway, you have to start the next game from 0-0.
Aston Villa is incredible. United is there, don’t play yet maybe exactly the football whoever wants, the media or whatever, but they have points like crazy.
Chelsea, I’m not sure if they’re coming. The league is incredibly strong, you need to be lucky to get through difficult moments, with injuries especially. So I have no clue.”
