If Arsenal, Manchester United and Chelsea want any chance at stopping Liverpool this season, these two players are the key to doing it. Their performances could be the difference in this title race, You need to sign these players in the next transfer window if you want to stop them” says Micah Richards as he identifies the two stars capable of halting Liverpool’s charge to Premier League glory. Richards highlights the critical roles these players could play in disrupting the Reds’ dominance, urging their teams to step up before it’s too late.

Micah Richards has spoken about what might disrupt Liverpool’s chase for the Premier League title this season.

The Reds earned a dominant 2-0 victory over Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday, with goals from Cody Gakpo and Mohamed Salah.

This win increased Liverpool’s lead to 11 points over City, who are currently on a seven-game winless streak in all competitions.

With Arsenal and Chelsea now trailing by nine points, Richards believes the title race is largely out of their reach.

However, he feels that injuries to key players like Mohamed Salah and Virgil van Dijk could be the only factor that derails Liverpool’s momentum, as manager Arne Slot has led them to an impressive 18-1-1 record since taking charge.

“Losing Salah or Van Dijk would change everything,” Richards said on Sky Sports. “We’ve seen how important big players are—Odegaard and Saka for Arsenal, Rodri and De Bruyne for City. Salah is remarkable; even when he’s not at his best, he makes an impact at crucial moments. Van Dijk is just as vital in defense.”

Richards added, “If both stay fit, it’s hard to imagine anyone stopping Liverpool this season.”
