DBasia.news – Newcastle United legend, Alan Shearer, stated that Leicester City could win the Premier League this season.
He expressed it after seeing Brendan Rodgers’ team beat Arsenal 2-0.
Leicester received their win thanks to goals from Jamie Vardy and James Maddison in the second half, and these additional three points pushed the Foxes to second.
Despite being five points adrift of Liverpool, who will face Manchester City at Anfield tonight, Shearer believes Leicester can repeat their achievements in 2015/16 when they surprised everyone by winning the title.
“Yes, they are potential champions,” Shearer stated.
“The longer they say that, the longer people will say it, the better they will be to continue to be challengers. Yes, they are in a championship competition. We’ve said this before. “
