Former Chelsea ace, Joe Cole, has backed Liverpool to challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season.
Cole believes the Reds will push Arsenal all the way to the end of the Premier League campaign this season.
The Englishman spoke as Mikel Arteta’s side defeated Real Madrid in the UEFA Champions League on Tuesday.
“I thought they were brilliant against Villa at the weekend and I thought they were equally outstanding tonight,” Cole said on TNT Sports.
“It’s a marquee win. They really took Real Madrid to the sword. It could have been three or four. [Thibaut] Courtois was brilliant. I think it’s a marker down for them to say, We are at it again.
“I think Liverpool will kick on and I think they will push Arsenal all the way in the league and I think they’ve got a right good chance in the Champions League.”
Arsenal are ahead of Man City (second position) on the Premier League table with six points after ten matches, while Liverpool are in third position.
