da cassino: Speaking to Sky Sports, former World Cup and Ballon d’Or winner Kaka has warned that it won’t be as easy for Liverpool next year even though they have been so dominant in the Premier League this term.
What’s the story?
da bet7: The Reds are currently 22 points clear at the top of the table, having won 24 out of their opening 25 matches. It is the biggest leading margin in the history of English football’s top tier.

However, although the ex-Brazil international has labelled Jurgen Klopp as a “pioneer coach”, he has warned the Reds that they will not have it all their own way next term. He explained: “It’s good to see a team playing this way because it’s just one season.
“I am not saying Liverpool are bad but in a competition like the Premier League, it’s hard to have a season like this.
“It shows that Liverpool are in very good shape and have a very good coach and players.”
Tougher challenge
Not even Klopp and his players will have expected to be so far ahead this campaign. They may have picked up 97 points last season, but that was still only second-best to Manchester City, and they will have likely been preparing for a similarly close-fought title race this time around.
Instead, though, they have made history, as mentioned above. Now, they only need to win six of their remaining 13 matches to be crowned champions at the end of the campaign. Of course, that has been down to their own relentless desire to win – they have won 24 out of their 25 matches so far – but the fact that their closest rivals have already lost two more matches than they did in the whole of the previous season indicates that others have not been at their best.

Klopp would be naive not to expect Pep Guardiola, and indeed the other leading sides in the Premier League, to come back stronger next term and give them a far tougher challenge. After all, the former Barcelona boss is not used to losing. However, given how impressive the Reds have been so far this campaign, you would not bet against them lifting the title again and, although doing it in style is a bonus, a one or a 22-point gap makes no difference in terms of who claims the trophy.
Meanwhile, this Liverpool star should be named as PFA Player of the Year.
