Liverpool icon Jamie Carragher has weighed in on this season's Premier League title race, identifying one team he believes could seriously challenge his former club for the trophy.
Carragher's Title Contender Pick
The Sky Sports pundit, who made over 700 appearances for Liverpool during his playing career, shared his insights during a recent analysis segment. While many are backing Manchester City as favourites, Carragher has highlighted another contender he thinks could push Jurgen Klopp's side all the way.
Why This Team Could Trouble Liverpool
Carragher pointed to several key factors that make this particular team a genuine threat:
- Their impressive summer transfer business
- A manager with proven tactical nous
- Strong defensive organisation
- Depth in attacking options
"They've built something special there," Carragher said. "While everyone's looking at City, this team could be the dark horses."
The Bigger Picture
The former England defender believes this season's title race could be one of the most competitive in years, with at least four teams capable of mounting serious challenges. However, he stressed that Liverpool's combination of experience and attacking firepower makes them particularly dangerous.
"Liverpool have that winning mentality now," Carragher added. "But this other team? They're hungrier than ever."
