Liverpool legend, Jamie Carragher says The Reds cannot win Premier League title this season but Manchester City will win it.

Carragher told Sky Sports: “No, I think Manchester City will win the league, I don’t see Liverpool or Chelsea cutting that gap.

If Liverpool had won at Chelsea and got the extra two points, and if they won their game in hand against Leeds, as you would expect them to do, then the gap to City would be six points, which would be very tough.

“Once it goes more than that, and you need three games to catch up on Manchester City, I just don’t see it at all.

Liverpool have been good going forward this season, Chelsea have been good defensively, but Manchester City are as good as both of them in those areas, and in terms of controlling games. That’s the big difference.”

When you’re 2-0 up against one of your big rivals, you’ve got to be disappointed. I think Liverpool in the end will actually be pleased with a point, and you could see that in the changes they made in the second half in bringing off [Sadio] Mane and [Diogo] Jota.

“That’s why Liverpool won’t win the league this season. Liverpool have taken the lead 17 times this season and so have Manchester City, but City have won each game. Liverpool have only won 12,” he said.
