As far as Gary Neville is concerned, it’s ‘pray for Tottenham’ time as Ange Postecoglou’s beleaguered Spurs head to Liverpool on what could be a weekend of pure jubilation for the Premier League champions-elect.

At least, Tottenham will be under no requirement to perform the dreaded ‘guard of honour’.

Should Liverpool secure their second Premier League title on Sunday – and their first under Arne Slot – old rivals Chelsea may be forced into applauding the victorious Reds onto the pitch at Stamford Bridge in early-May.

“A procession.

Yet, Arne Slot has been ‘incredible’ stepping Jurgen Klopp’s shoes, building on his predecessors foundations and ensuring that the title can be secured with four games remaining.

“None of us can rewrite history,” the former England right-back said on The Gary Neville Podcast after Trent Alexander-Arnold fired Liverpool past Leicester City on Sunday.

“I don’t think there were many Liverpool fans who thought they could win the league, let alone anybody else.

“I don’t remember any pundit, analyst, journalist or fan saying that Liverpool will win the league.
