Carried by an impressive regularity in the championship, the men of Arne Slot impress up to their old rivals. For Gary Neville, it's an “incredible” season, far from the forecasts made after the departure of Jürgen Klopp.

Liverpool, leader of the Premier League with 12 points ahead of Arsenal eight days before the term, is very close to a 20ᵉ title of champion of England. After a month of March marked by an elimination in the knockout stages of the Champions League against Paris Saint-Germain (1-0, 0-1, TAB 1-4) and a defeat in the final of the Carabao Cup against Newcastle United (1-2), the Reds resumed the hair of the beast by beating Everton (1-0) this Wednesday in the Premier League.

Gary Neville, the former right side of Manchester United, believes that the Liverpool season surpasses all forecasts. And this, despite the disappointments of the Mersey club in other competitions. Indeed, before the kick-off of this 2024-2025 season, rare were those who imagined the Mersey club, led by Arne Slot after the departure of Jürgen Klopp this summer, occupy such a position at this stage of the competition.

Neville's clear opinion on Liverpool

“People have to stop rewrite history by saying it's a disappointing season. It's an incredible season for Liverpool. We all thought there would be a drop in regime after the passage of Jürgen Klopp, but it was nothing ”explained the consultant to Sky Sports.

This Sunday, Liverpool moves on the lawn of Fulham. Anfield residents will have the opportunity to widen the gap with Arsenal more, in the event of a faux step of the Gunners against Everton.
