Former Liverpool Star Replies When Asked If Manchester City Will Catch Chelsea

Jamie Carragher feels it is unlikely that Manchester City will be able to catch Chelsea.


Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher is of the opinion that it is unlikely that Manchester City will be able to catch Chelsea in the race for the Premier League title this current term.

Chelsea have successfully established themselves as the firm favourites to win the Premier League this season following their nice form under their new Italian coach Antonio Conte.

The Stamford Bridge club are presently eight points clear at the top of the table as they look to win the league in Antonio Conte’s first season at the club.

Following Man City victory over Bournemouth on Monday night, Pep Guardiola's side now moved up to second place in the table with victory as they look to reignite their title challenge.

However, Jamie Carragher feels that it is unlikely that City would be able to catch Chelsea in the race for the title this season.


Carragher speaking on Sky Sports’ Monday Night Football is of the opinion that  even though it is up to Chelsea if they should do something stupid, but Pep is now putting things in place, and maybe even more for next season.

The Stamford Bridge club are presently gearing up for their FA Cup fifth-round clash against Wolves this weekend after their 1-1 draw with Burnley on Sunday.
