By contrast, Liverpool have just James Milner, part of City’s successes in 2011/12 and 2013/14, as their only Premier League winner. But Rush does not believe a lack of experience will be pivotal in this season’s title race. Defensively they are stronger than they have been for years while Mohamed Salah, Roberto Firmino and Sadio Mane continue to score regularly. Salah is unlikely to match his impressive tally of 32 league goals from last season but Rush, scorer of 346 for Liverpool, believes he has improved. He may not score as many goals — it was always going to be more difficult this year — but seems to be a better player and that is why he is the league’s top scorer,” Rush added.
