While several clubs will hope to challenge for the title next season, Liverpool boss Jurgen Klopp has claimed Manchester City side are the only team that can realistically aim for the title.
‘Nobody besides maybe Man City can have the real target to become champions again this year,’ Klopp said during Liverpool’s pre-season tour.
‘All the other teams fight for the Champions League and that’s what we do as well. The earlier you qualify for the Champions League, the higher you are in the table.
‘If you are second and in striking distance to first then you might have a chance. I don’t know who will be there.
‘We need points and a lot of them. Yes, a club the size of Liverpool has to be successful. Otherwise the club has to find different solutions.’
Arsenal boss Mikel Arteta was asked about Klopp’s comments in his pre-match press conference ahead of Sunday’s Community Shield final against Man City.
‘I respect that,’ the Spaniard said. ‘They’ve shown their consistency over the years and they merit that respect from everybody for what they’ve done.
‘If you want to challenge for that championship you know the total points that you’re going to be needing and that’s unheard of in this league for the last 100 years.
‘So that’s the standard and if you want to be there, you know what you have to do.’
