Owen Hargreaves believes the Anfield outfit’s depth has paid dividends for the side.He told Football Talk:

“I’m amazed Liverpool have made this a title race. Two months ago you would’ve thought it was over. Liverpool are just such a great team obviously Virgil van Dijk back, defensively they’re sound.”

He continued:

“Depth – I think that was the only issue for Liverpool they didn’t have enough depth. And all of a sudden now with Diaz going to that side, Jota, they’re great.”

“Problem is City are probably one of the greatest teams we’ve seen. I think they’re by far the best two teams in Europe. This is going to go right down to the wire I really feel that.”
