Liverpool have had a strong start under new head coach Arne Slot, but football fans remain uncertain about whether they should be considered Premier League title challengers alongside Man City and Arsenal.
Slot’s side currently tops the league after seven games, having won six, and remains unbeaten in both the UEFA Champions League and EFL Cup.
However, Liverpool face tougher challenges in the coming weeks, which will reveal if they truly belong in the title race.
One argument in their favor is that many players were part of last season’s title chase and have experience winning trophies, unlike Arsenal.
Additionally, the squad is filled with leaders, as demonstrated during the international break when seven Liverpool players—Konate, van Dijk, Szoboszlai, Bradley, Robertson, Endo, and Salah—captained their respective national teams, according to Anfield Edition.
As Slot hopes for his players’ healthy return ahead of their match against Chelsea, the team’s strength across the pitch and their quick adaptation to Slot’s tactics suggest they are capable of challenging for the Premier League title.
While things aren’t perfect at Liverpool, the same can be said for both Man City and Arsenal, making it difficult to dismiss Liverpool as contenders for the 2024/25 season.
