On September 2, in the third round of the Premier League, Liverpool defeated Manchester United 3-0. After the game, Scholes stated that the current Liverpool side is very dominant and looks more like a champion contender than Arsenal, and will be the biggest challenger to Manchester City’s title defense.
After seeing Liverpool’s big win over Manchester United, Scholes was convinced: “This Liverpool team is very dominant; I believe they can truly challenge for the Premier League title this season. Before the start of the season, I thought Arsenal would be Manchester City’s biggest challenger and had a chance to win the Premier League title. However, after watching the first three rounds of matches, I believe Liverpool will surpass Arsenal to become the biggest challenger to Manchester City’s title defense.”
Scholes continued: “For most of last season, Liverpool were in the title race, but fell behind towards the end of the season. If they can maintain unity and avoid injuries, they will be able to compete with Manchester City on equal terms.”
In the first three rounds of the Premier League, only Manchester City and Liverpool have maintained a perfect record.
