Derby boss Jewell writes off Liverpool title chances

Derby County boss Paul Jewell feels Liverpool will not be able to win the Premiership title this season.

The Rams boss, a Liverpool supporter, has tipped Arsenal and Manchester United to be the top two contenders. However he is confident the Reds will soon end their title wait.

Jewell said in the Daily Mail: "They'll win it (title) again, I'm sure of that, but I don't think they will do it this season.

"I think the title race is more exciting this year than it has been because Arsenal and Manchester United are out in front, with Chelsea are on their heels.

"Liverpool are 10 points behind with a game in hand. It can be done, but I can't see them overtaking Arsenal and United.

"But with the investment they have, with the players they've got and those they will bring in, they will get closer and closer."
