Gary Lineker has taken to Twitter to give his reaction to Liverpool’s defeat to Manchester City at Anfield on Sunday evening.

Liverpool have suffered a heavy 4-1 loss at the hands of City at home in the Premier League.

Alisson made two huge mistakes, as the Citizens enhanced their chances of winning the title this season.

As for Liverpool, Jurgen Klopp’s side are now unlikely to make it two title wins in a row.

Former Tottenham Hotspur and Everton striker Gary Lineker has given his take on Liverpool’s defeat tonight, while ex-City forward Rodney Marsh believes that the Merseyside club will not win the title this season.

Liverpool’s title chances

The result means that Liverpool are fourth in the Premier League table at the moment with 40 points from 23 matches.

The defending English champions are as many as 10 points behind leaders City, who have played 22 games.

True, there is a lot of football to be played this season, but at the moment it does look very unlikely that Liverpool will be able to close the gap between themselves and Pep Guardiola’s side.
