Everton Manager says Liverpool deserves Premier League title

Everton boss Ronald Koeman has tipped premier league rival, Liverpool FC, to win the league title this season.
The Dutchman said this at the launch of the Kick It With Help anti-smoking campaign.

“It’s still too early to say who will be the favourites, but I have been impressed by Liverpool so far.
“Maybe that is not what you might expect the Everton manager to say but they have been playing some very good football and deserve to be at the top.

“They have goals in their team and this is what all successful sides need.
“Of course they can be champions this season, they have a good chance, but they are not the only contenders,” the Toffees boss said.

At the moment, Everton are 8 points of league leaders Liverpool, and are in 7th spot of the league table. Koeman however said the best his Everton team can hope for this season is a push for a place in a European competition for next season, as he suggested his work at Goodison Park will take time.
