Liverpool defender Martin Skrtel says the jury's out over the threat from Manchester City.

"I can't see it changing much from last season," he told liverpoolfc.tv.

"Man United will be a big favourite again and Chelsea will be there, with Arsenal likely to be pushing too.

"Maybe Man City will also be able to challenge. They have brought a lot of top players into the club but we will have to wait and see if it works for them."
