Former Liverpool star Jamie Carragher has reversed his previous stance on Manchester City winning the Premier League title for the 2026/2027 season. In a recent interview on Monday Night Football, Carragher stated that Rodri's transfer to Barcelona this summer has shifted his perspective. He now believes that Arsenal will retain their current crown.
Carragher explained, "A few weeks ago, I thought Man City might have a chance, but it was all around Rodri. 'If Rodri stayed, I’d maybe make a case for them, but without Rodri, I just can’t see it.'" The former defender also commented on the top four positions, suggesting that Manchester City, Chelsea, and Liverpool will secure these places. He added, "Man City are better than Chelsea, but the European factor can play a huge part. We saw Manchester United last season. It gives them a big lift, Chelsea."
Carragher believes Liverpool's chances are slim, stating, "I think, just looking at the Chelsea situation and Liverpool where they are right now, I don’t see any way they’d be in the top two, and I don’t see any way they can mount a title challenge."
