Joe Cole, who left his mark in English football, playing for “Chelsea” and the national team, shared his thoughts before the new season. According to him, the English Premier League this year is expected to be even more intense and uncompromising, but still the favorite is considered to be “Liverpool”.
According to Cole, Arne Slot’s men, just like last season when they confidently won the championship, will also enter the new season strong and prepared. In his words, the only chance for rivals is if “Liverpool”, due to numerous changes in the squad, starts the season slowly, then they can be overtaken. However, by the end of the season the Merseysiders will definitely be working at full power, he said.
At the same time, Joe Cole also spoke about “Arsenal”. In his opinion, Mikel Arteta has a serious opportunity to win the title this season. Because the club has bought a central striker, which can further strengthen the team’s attacking line. However, Cole said, there are still questions: if “Arsenal” had managed to sign Victor Osimhen, who had proven himself in Italy and Turkey, the situation could have been completely different.
He also commented on another striker — Gyökeres. According to Cole, he will be able to show himself on the field, score goals, but this process will take time.
Summarizing his words, Joe Cole emphasized: “At the moment, the strongest team is Liverpool.”
It should be reminded that last season “Liverpool” became the country’s champion, while “Arsenal” had to settle for second place.
