Former Premier League star Clinton Morrison has suggested that Liverpool have shown they have it in them to be champions of Europe this season.
The Reds earned a big win away to Paris Saint-Germain this week, coming away with a hard-fought 1-0 win despite Luis Enrique’s side dominating in terms of possession and chances.
Morrison was impressed to see Liverpool show they can grind out a result like that when they’re not at their best, and he thinks they’re now one of the main Champions League favourites.
“I left Arsenal because my wife told me she wanted to get out of London – then six months later she told me to go BACK!” – which Arsenal legend instantly regretted leaving?
The pundit, who played for the likes of Crystal Palace and Birmingham City during his career, also feels Real Madrid are the other main favourite for the trophy.
On top of that, Morrison feels Arsenal and Bayern Munich could be two other clubs worth watching out for in this competition.

“That’s the sign of champions and a sign of quality when you’re not playing to your maximum, but you’re still managing to get results. And that’s when I say sometimes you need your big players and Alisson is a big player to step up,” Morrison told Freebets.com.
“To come away with a win like that, on crucial nights when other players are probably not getting any joy is the sign of a top quality team and credit must go to Arne Slot because obviously since going in there, he’s done a fantastic job, not only in the Premier League but also in the Champions League.
“Liverpool have a chance now. I know Real Madrid are still in it and Bayern Munich had a good result as well but there’s a lot of still top teams left in it, Arsenal too.
