Glen Johnson has claimed that Liverpool are the people's choice to win the Premier League, because of their free-scoring brand of football.
Speaking after the Reds' highly entertaining 6-3 victory at Cardiff, the fullback is certain that the impartial football fans - are there any of those, really? - would like to see them claim a long-coveted league title.
“Just to spice things up the neutrals would want to see us win it,” Johnson said. “Nobody wants the same teams to be winning it over and over again. I guess the neutrals will be packing a punch for us. We must be good to watch.
“People watch football to enjoy themselves, see goals and see exciting football, and I think we do provide that. I think people will be rooting for us because it will be something different.
“I’m not that surprised by how we’re playing. Even last season we were battering teams but not getting the goals. At the moment we are playing well and getting the goals. It’s a case of staying calm and keeping it going.”
Is he right? Do the 'neutrals' really want Liverpool to win anything?
