Tim Sherwood has ‘changed his mind’ about the Premier League title race as Chelsea and Arsenal chase leaders Liverpool. Liverpool have opened up a four-point lead at the top of the table and could pull even further clear if they win their game in hand.

Some pundits predicted a turbulent season for the Reds following the departure of legendary manager Jurgen Klopp, but Liverpool look even more impressive under Arne Slot, losing just once in the Premier League and amassing 39 points from 16 games. Liverpool’s nearest rival is currently Chelsea, who have defied expectations to emerge as genuine title contenders, scoring more goals than any Premier League team this season.
The Blues are two points ahead of London rivals Arsenal, who are looking to mount yet another title challenge after pushing Manchester City close over the past two years. Only last week Sherwood named Arsenal as his ‘favourites’ to win the Premier League, but he has ‘change his mind’ after watching Liverpool ‘dismantle’ Tottenham at the weekend.
‘Everything is looking perfect for Liverpool at the moment,’ Sherwood said on Premier League Productions. ‘I tipped Arsenal to win the Premier League, but I watched them [Liverpool] and I have to change my mind. ‘I’m allowed to change my mind, aren’t I? Watching them dismantle Tottenham, they look sensational right now.’.
