Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher verdicts on Manchester United and Man City's Premier League chances

Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher are confident Manchester City will not be caught ahead of the new Premier League season.

The Blues made history in the 2022/23 campaign as Pep Guardiola's side won The Treble to cement themselves as the best team in world football at present. Despite losing Ilkay Gundogan and Riyad Mahrez so far this summer, both of the Sky Sports pundits found it difficult to look beyond City for the title this season.

When asked by FourFourTwo if anyone will stop City, Neville replied: "Sitting here today, it’s difficult to say yes." Carragher added: "No, I don’t think so."
