Recently, Gary Neville and Carragher respectively published their predictions for the new Premier League season, and they believe that Liverpool and Arsenal will win the final Premier League championship.
The new Premier League season kicked off last weekend, with defending champion Liverpool making a perfect start. Arsenal and Manchester City also scored three-pointers on the first day, but despite the big signings in the summer, Chelsea encountered setbacks against Crystal Palace.
These results seem to change Carragher and Neville's view, and the two have different predictions for the next ten months. Manchester United legend Neville believes Arsenal will win the championship, but he said: "Arsenal, Manchester City and Liverpool have all the chances, they are of equal strength. Arsenal has been stable over the past three years, and I think they will eventually reach the top."
"Liverpool's two full-backs need to adapt, their defense looks a bit fragile. But they have a lot of offense. Manchester City's central axis is very strong, and I chose the team that I have supported for the past three years, and they are reliable and stable. As long as the forward problem is solved, Yorke will have something As a result, Carragher is optimistic about Liverpool's defending title. He responded: "I was worried about the performance in the Community Shield, but if Liverpool can solve the defensive problem, they have strong attack power. A few days ago, I thought Arsenal was Liverpool's biggest opponent, but their performance against Manchester United made me feel that they still need improvement. Manchester City left a deep impression on me, and I think Manchester City will be Liverpool's closest opponent."
