Arsenal draw against Nottingham Forest (0-0), Liverpool victory against Newcastle (2-0). The evening on Wednesday evening was still profitable for the Reds, who now have 13 points ahead of the Gunners.
The men of Mikel Arteta certainly have one match less, but the mass seems said:
No team in the history of the English elite, since 1888-89, has lost the title after counting as much in advance at this stage of the season, recalls the BBC. “It becomes less a race race and the more a procession, right? »»said Gary Lineker, the presenter of the show Match of the Day.
Liverpool thoroughly on the C1
The highly listened to journalist Henry Winter resumes exactly the same terms. “” “You have to stop talking about the 'title race'. It's a procession ”, writes the journalist, who thinks that Arne Slot will now be able to rest his players and “Tour a little (especially before the Champions League).”
For the moment, Henry Winter does not see
“No sign of physical or mental fatigue” Among the Reds, who have just beat Man City and Newcastle with Master. The executives are in good shape, in particular Mohamed Salah, about which the journalist makes this observation: “It is advisable to note his minutes during the 8 Liverpool games in 26 days in February: 88, 82, 0 (FA Cup), 90, 90, 90, 89, 90.” In other words, Salah plays all the time, because he is in the form of his life.
Another important point, with the international break, and its advanced match due to the final of the Carabao Cup against Newcastle, Liverpool will only play one Premier League match in March. In other words, the men of Arne Slot, who will be at rest this weekend (they are eliminated from the FA Cup), will be able to focus fully on the Champions League. PSG is completely warned.
