I don't know what Phil Neville has been smoking, but saying the competition is already decided in the first week of October is not something I would expect from a pundit like him.
What Liverpool is doing is great, and they did it last year too. They are clinical and almost lose no points. But I have seen some downsides already. The loss against Napoli in the Champions League and the last minute win this Saturday tell that it can go wrong for Liverpool too. And for City, well, Guardiola is a perfect timer, he gets his team in best form for money time, just like last year. Where Liverpool was in front for a long time too, but eventually City took it home...
So, Phil Neville, maybe you better stay away from the hasheesh for a while...
Sincerely,
