Micah Richards picks who’s more likely to win the Premier League this season… Liverpool or Arsenal

Micah Richards believes Liverpool are more likely to win the Premier League than Arsenal this season.

Richards has been speaking on The Rest Is Football and discussed Liverpool’s chances of challenging for the title this season.

Jurgen Klopp’s men currently sit level on points with Mikel Arteta’s side as both teams are a point behind league leaders Manchester City.

The Reds have only tasted one defeat in the league this season and that was the controversial 2-1 loss at Tottenham.

As for Arsenal, they are yet to find their best form this term but have managed to consistently pick up positive results.

But Richards thinks Liverpool are more likely to win the league than Arsenal this season.

Speaking on The Rest Is Football, Richards was asked who thinks has a better chance of winning the league.

“I would say Liverpool,” he said. “Just because Salah and by all accounts Van Dijk had a really good game today.”

Alan Shearer then added: “He did have a good game. He looked back to his best, he read the game very well.

“And they are always going to score goals Liverpool, with the talent they have up top.”

Both sides look set to push City to the wire based on their early-season form.

Of course, Klopp has the added experience of beating Pep Guardiola’s men to a title in the past whereas Arteta’s men fell short last season.

But the best is yet to come from Arsenal and you’d imagine they will only get stronger as the season goes on.

City also haven’t been at their best in the early stages of the campaign but they endured a similar start last time out before going on to win a treble.

NAPOLIBREAKING NEWS:  Napoli fans left in total shock after hearing heartbreaking Victor Osimhen news after losing to Empoli yesterdayPublished 5 hours ago on November 13, 2023By admin

BREAKING NEWS:  Napoli fans left in total shock after hearing heartbreaking Victor Osimhen news after losing to Empoli yesterday
Napoli begin counting cost of Osimhen’s unavailability

There appears a growing concern in Napoli about the currently sidelined to striker, Nigeria’s Victor Osimhen over the spate of injuries that has seen him missed 55 games since joining the club.

It has also been projected that the forecast will rise to 58 considering the fact that Osimhen still has at least three more matches to miss against Salernitana, Union Berlin and Empoli.

According to an Italian news outlet in Naples, Tuttonapoli, Osimhen also missed three matches due to suspension bringing the total to 61 missed matches in three seasons.

According to the publication, it was considered that “61 games is a lot for a player with a net salary of five million a year.”

It reasoned that Napoli, in fact, paid more than a year of salary to Osimhen without being able to count on him, remembering that an average season has about 50 games a year between league and cups.

Osimhen is a repeat offender: according to Transfermarkt’s which gave a breakdown of Osimhen’s missed matches. The first in November with the problem behind him in the national team.

He was out of action for 15 games. Then he missed six with Covid and three more with a head injury in February 2021 and two more with a calf strain in October of the same year.

Shortly after, due to a fractured cheekbone against Inter for the clash with Skriniar, he was out of action for 12 games and missed two more, again in the 2021/22 season, due to Covid.

Last year he was knocked out by Liverpool: out seven games. He was also out in the spring for four games due to an adductor injury.

The last knockout in the national team: so far three games missed due to the hamstring injury.

For a total of 58 matches including the next three. In addition to the injuries, he also missed three matches due to disqualification. The grand total? 61 games.

Many, too many. Waiting to see if he will really return immediately after the break and remembering that in January he will go to the Africa Cup of Nations and therefore will certainly miss other games. Evaluations are also underway for clubs that want to bet on him in the future.
