Manchester United legend Teddy Sheringham believes Liverpool will win the title next season ahead of his former club.
The former Tottenham, West Ham and Portsmouth forward also backed Fernando Torres to finish the season as the league’s top scorer.
Sheringham told ZOO Magazine: “I'm going for Liverpool to win the title.”
“They looked so good at the end of last season and will be the team to beat.”
“United fans won't like me saying it, but it'll be their year.”
He added: “I also think they'll have the Prem's top scorer in Fernando Torres.”
“Benitez will play him in all the Premier League games because the title is so important to the Reds, whereas other clubs may rotate more.”
Sheringham also suggested United’s midfield will have to start contributing goals if they are to stand a chance of winning an unprecedented four Premier League titles.
He added: “Man United have lost the goals of Cristiano Ronaldo and Sir Alex Ferguson loves players who score regularly.”
“It's all very well being a good midfielder but if you don't contribute goals, he's usually not interested.”
“Antonio Valencia and Anderson are tidy but they have to start scoring for the Red Devils are to win a fourth successive title.”
