Jermaine Pennant has tipped Liverpool to be Man City’s biggest threat in the Premier League this season.
Pennant played for both Arsenal and Liverpool during his career.
He said on talkSPORT: “Minimum [expectation for Liverpool] is top four. The way we have started so far is ten times better than how Liverpool started last season. They look solid. Little bit worried about the defence but going forward, they look strong.
“The midfield is a really good midfield now. Young, energetic, Szoboszlai looks very good.
“Keeping Mo is not only going to be good for Liverpool but good for everything to do with Liverpool. The players will see Mo there, they know what he will give you.

“Goals, assists… and with him staying there, they should now be looking to challenge Manchester City like they have for the last five years, bar last season.
“At the moment, I’d say Liverpool are in a better place than Arsenal. I’ll say in the games so far, they have played a lot better than Arsenal. Mikel Arteta is still tweaking… he is trying to fit people into the team.
“Write Manchester United off, because they are all over the shop. I think if Liverpool played Arsenal, Liverpool are the better team and would be favourites going into that game.”
