Tim Sherwood Says Who He Now Thinks Will Win the Premier League Between Liverpool and Arsenal
Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea, and Manchester City remain firmly in contention for the Premier League title.
At the start of the season, few would have predicted the title race to unfold in its current fashion.
Liverpool currently lead the Premier League table, with Chelsea sitting in second place.
Neither Liverpool nor Chelsea were widely expected to challenge for the title this season. Liverpool faced significant change after Jurgen Klopp’s departure in the summer, with Arne Slot — a relatively unknown figure in English football — taking charge.
Chelsea also underwent a managerial change, replacing Mauricio Pochettino with Enzo Maresca, a coach with only one season of experience managing in the second tier.
Manchester City were the pre-season favourites to win the league, while Arsenal received strong backing, including from Gary Neville, who tipped them for the title.
However, during an appearance on the Kelly and Wrighty Show, Tim Sherwood revised his prediction and now believes Liverpool will emerge as Premier League champions.
Tim Sherwood Tips Liverpool to Win the League
Sherwood says that he now thinks Liverpool will win the league.
Indeed, the pundit says that the now thinks the stars are perfectly aligned for the Reds to win the league
“Everything is looking perfect for Liverpool at the moment. I tipped Arsenal to win the Premier League, but I watched them and I have to change my mind.
“I’m allowed to change my mind aren’t I? Watching them dismantle Tottenham, they look sensational, the width of Gakpo and Salah.”
What Tim Sherwood Said About Arsenal
Sherwood revealed that he had originally backed Arsenal to win the Premier League title, even reaffirming this prediction as recently as last week.
In fact, just a week ago, Sherwood expressed confidence that Arsenal could string together 10 to 15 consecutive victories to surpass Liverpool in the title race.
“Pep Guardiola and Man City have been his only problem, and they’re not there any more, so, for me, I know I’ve said it before, they’re my favourites to win the Premier League.
“I think Arsenal win 10 or 15 games on the spin when they get back to fitness, but they need to improve, Martinelli needs to improve or they need to go to Trossard and find a different solution,” Sherwood said
Arsenal delivered an impressive performance on Saturday with a 5-1 victory over Crystal Palace. However, Liverpool’s commanding 6-3 win against Tottenham has convinced pundit Tim Sherwood that the Reds are indeed serious contenders for the title.
Whether Liverpool can maintain their momentum and secure the Premier League trophy remains to be seen, but they are undoubtedly in a strong position to go all the way.
Arsenal, however, are still in the race, and with the January transfer window approaching, Mikel Arteta could bolster his squad with key signings. Rafael Leao has been linked with a move to the Emirates, but as things stand, the Gunners are considered the underdogs in this title battle.
