Former Tottenham boss Harry Redknapp believes Liverpool will win the Premier League this season.
Redknapp thinks that news of a potential long-term injury to Manchester City star Kevin De Bruyne just gives extra momentum to Jurgen Klopp's men.
“I fancy Liverpool this year," he told talkSPORT.
“I like the look of them. I think they will run Manchester City very close.
“City will be favourites, but if Kevin de Bruyne is out for a few months that's a big blow.
“I think Liverpool could mount a real challenge this year.
“You look at their forward power now, the front three are incredible, Daniel Sturridge came off the bench the other day and scored and Xherdan Shaqiri is there, he's another player with great ability.
“I think they could be real threat this season to Manchester City. If they're going to do it, it's going to be this season.
“They seem to have a great spirit there, the manager is a like Pep, he's got a great personality and the players seem to like him.
“I think this could be Liverpool's year to win a championship again."
