Jamie Carragher backs Liverpool to finish in top four

By , Staff Reporter
Jamie Carragher backs Liverpool to finish this season in the top four of the Premier League.

Former Liverpool defender Jamie Carragher has backed Jurgen Klopp to guide the team into a Champions League spot this season.

The Merseyside outfit finished eighth in the Premier League table in the 2015-16 campaign.

Leicester became shock winners and Tottenham Hotspur finished third, while Manchester United and Chelsea missed out on a place in the top four.

In an interview with Goal.com, Carragher said: "I think we go back to the norm. I know Leicester fans may not like me to say that, but I think the heavyweights will come back.

"I'd expect the top four to consist of Man City, Man United, Chelsea and I think Liverpool might get in there. I think the fact that Liverpool have got no European football, the same as Chelsea, is a massive advantage they have on the others."

In three league games this season, Liverpool have recorded a win, draw and defeat.
