Former "Liverpool" left-back John Riise believes that the "Liverpool" club is capable of competing for the English Premier League title this season.
Currently, "Liverpool" is ranked fourth in England with four consecutive victories, but they are only two points behind the leaders.
"I think we can surprise everyone," - said J. Riise about the chances of winning the Premier League. - "However, Manchester City is a very strong opponent. They will be a challenge not only for "Liverpool" this year, but also in the following years."
"Liverpool" had a difficult start to the season, but the start was good. If you had asked me before the season about the chances of winning the Premier League, I would have said next year.
"The good news is that the "Liverpool" team won't have to play European matches this season. This could be a huge advantage," - added the defender.
