EPL: Gary Neville Lists Three Clubs Unlikely to Win Title This Season

Former Manchester United captain, Gary Neville has ruled out Chelsea, Newcastle United, and Aston Villa from winning the Premier League title this season.

Speaking on his podcast after the opening weekend, Neville tipped Liverpool, Manchester City, and Arsenal as the only genuine contenders.

“Newcastle or Aston Villa are not going to win the league,” Neville said.

On Chelsea, he acknowledged the club’s talent but questioned their title credentials: “They have a lot of good young players, but you’re not looking at [Joao] Pedro or [Liam] Delap in the same way you look at Arsenal or Liverpool’s forwards.”

Neville added that while Chelsea could enjoy a good season, they currently lack the experienced core required to mount a serious title challenge.
