Overview
- Jamie Carragher told the Football Ramble podcast that, based on current squads, only Manchester City and defending champions Arsenal look able to win the 2026–27 Premier League.
- Carragher backed City to reclaim the title because he believes Enzo Maresca’s tactics offer continuity and a fresh edge after Pep Guardiola’s departure.
- He warned that City’s outlook would change if Rodri leaves for Real Madrid and said retaining the Spain midfielder could be the single biggest factor in City’s title chances.
- Carragher argued Liverpool are not yet equipped to challenge and need at least two defenders plus a top right‑winger to return to the title conversation.
- He dismissed Manchester United as likely winners this season while praising their quieter, more targeted recruitment this summer, and stressed that transfer activity before the window closes could still alter these early views.
