"I'll tell you why [Liverpool will win], because of Virgil van Dijk, really. Every time Virgil van Dijk has been fit, fully at his best and has played a full season, Liverpool have got mid 90 points. "Last season, he was still coming back from that cruciate injury and he wasn't fully fit. That's where Liverpool lost the league. They let City get eight or 10 points clear by Christmas.

There was a telling moment, soon after, when Jones asked the studio audience who they believed would win. Most raised their hands for City.
When two hands shot up for Liverpool, Neville asked, "Are you Liverpool fans? Yeah? Thought you might be!"
