Tim Sherwood believes the top two in the Premier League is 'sewn up' with Jurgen Klopp and Pep Guardiola staying at Liverpool and Manchester City. The two clubs were a cut above the rest last season and are backed to do the same this upcoming campaign.
The football pundit is interested to see what Thomas Tuchel will do at Chelsea after they lost Romelu Lukaku to Inter Milan, and have added Raheem Sterling to their attacking ranks.
Sherwood spoke about his 'love' for the Liverpool and City bosses and believes the likes of Manchester United, Chelsea and Tottenham Hotspur are playing 'catch up'.

Tim Sherwood, speaking on behalf of 888sport said: “Them two managers are really difficult to challenge because they’ve got the players and the experience now of getting over the line.
"So everyone else is playing catch-up. It will be interesting to see what Thomas Tuchel does at Chelsea – another top manager. Ten Hag will need a few years yet. You have to give it time because it won’t happen for United overnight.
"But I’m particularly keen to see what [Antonio] Conte does because he’s a winner as well. He’s been backed early in the transfer market for one reason – so they can challenge. Daniel Levy will think they can challenge. Finishing third though would be a good season and maybe get that little bit closer to City and Liverpool.
"I want to see Klopp and Guardiola here forever, because I love them. But if you’re a supporter of another club, whether that be Chelsea, Man United, Tottenham or Arsenal, you just want them to leave to give everyone else a chance.”
