Garth Crooks thinks only this team can stop Manchester City

BBC pundit Garth Crooks thinks that only Liverpool can stop Manchester City from winning the Premier League title this season.

He made this known after the Citizens demolished Huddersfield Town by six goals to one and Manchester United lost to Brighton in the Premier League on Sunday.

Manchester City won the title with a record 100 points last season, and have won their opening two games in the Premier League this term.

Speaking to the BBC, he said: "Having seen Manchester United’s shambolic performance at Brighton, I think Liverpool are the only team who can stop City."

Liverpool face Crystal Palace on Monday and are on the back of a 4-0 win over West Ham United in their opening game.

It is still early days, but it is fitting to say that Pep Guardiola's men have shown that they are the team to beat this season.

With a new manager, Chelsea are also a side to watch out for having won their opening two games in the league.
