Former Liverpool captain Phil Thompson believes the Reds are just one of six teams capable of winning the Premier League this season. Liverpools title odds have been cut from 9/1 to 3/1 by Sky Bet following an impressive start to the campaign which currently sees them sit level on points with leaders Manchester City after nine games.However, despite now being second favourites for the league, the Soccer Saturday pundit has called for calm from the Anfield faithful as he believes the likes of Arsenal, Tottenham Hotspur, Manchester United, Chelsea and City are all in with an equal chance as the Reds of winning the title. Pundits Sky Bet tips Find out what Thommo and the pundits are tipping up for Crystal Palace v Liverpool here Im still cautious, he told Sky Sports. I dont think anybody should get carried away. Theres still so many teams which are capable of winning the league, all of the big six have a chance.People thought City were going to be running away with it after their perfect start and suddenly its supposedly crisis. A 2-1 win over West Brom last Saturday saw Liverpool pull level on points with Man City at the top of the table Its a Premier League weekly, because a different team is becoming the flavour. Just look at Arsenal, they were being written off, then people start to believe, then they draw with Middlesbrough and talk about them goes quiet again. Watch NOW TV Watch Sky Sports for just ￡6.99. No contract. Liverpool have as good a chance as most, but I stick with my pre-season prediction in making Manchester City favourites.Were still in the infancy of the campaign and Im just hoping Liverpool are there come April, still playing the same football. Watch highlights of Liverpools 2-1 win against West Brom Jurgen Klopps high-intensity style is having the desired impact, with his side top of both the distance covered and the sprint charts, while they have also scored the joint highest number of goals in the league this season.Thompson is enjoying what hes seeing from his old team, but is also wary of the challenge of them having to maintain such intensity going forward due to a lack of squad depth compared to their rivals.It is quite reminiscent of Brendan Rodgers season when we finished second and everybody enjoyed the way Liverpool played, except for Everton and Man United fans, he said. Phil Thompson has hailed James Milner for his performances at left back so far this season However, Im not sure our squad is as big as the likes of Arsenal and City, so we need to keep the core of the squad fit, the likes of Dejan Lovren, Philippe Coutinho, Roberto Firmino, Jordan Henderson and Sadio Mane.I would still think the squad needs strengthening a little bit. Just look at the left-back situation, James Milner deserves massive credit in an area where we lacked options when Alberto Moreno was struggling.

CALGARY, Alberta -- The Columbus Blue Jackets are riding a long winning streak while their next opponent, the Calgary Flames, are dealing with an abrupt end to one.The teams meet Friday at 7 p.m. in Calgary. Columbus is going for its eighth-straight victory while the Flames are trying to start another streak after one ended at six with a 6-3 loss at home to Tampa Bay onWednesday night.Its a great league and its hard to go on long win streaks so ultimately thats going to happen and its just a matter of us re-focusing, re-grouping and bouncing back for next game, said Flames center Sam Bennett.Normally a visit by the Blue Jackets has hosts licking their chops but that is no longer the case as, under head coach John Tortorella, the Blue Jackets (18-5-4) have emerged as a challenger for the lead in the tough Metropolitan Division. The are two points back division-leading Pittsburgh Penguins entering Friday, though they have played five fewer games.If it wasnt for division foe Philadelphia Flyers, who have won 10 straight, the Blue Jackets would be the NHLs hottest team.Its a far cry from the start of last season when the Blue Jackets began 0-7 and fired coach Todd Richards, bringing in lightning rod Tortorella. While they finished 27th overall in 2015-16, the BlueJackets caught fire this season and are an unheard of fifth overall.Tortorella is being credited with taking a softer approach to coaching the youthful Blue Jackets that has worked thus far.Its him realizing that things should be ... done differently, whhether it be with the players or with the media or whoever it is, Blue Jackets president John Davidson told Canadian network Sportsnet.dddddddddddd Hes done a great job. The one thing I can tell you is hes a good coach. Hes a really good coach.Tortorella admits hes tried to be more relaxed. One change has been to eliminate game-day morning skates, which is considered sacrilegious by many in the NHL.Ive made adjustments in my coaching to the youth of this team, he told NHL.com. Weve tried to, as I say, turn away from mistakes and allow them to play because I think we need to play a different game, especially with some of the skill thats been brought to our team.Columbus is relying heavily on goaltender Sergei Bobrovsky, who has started 24 of 27 games and has a 17-4-2 record and 1.94 goals-against average.The Flames were getting similar strong goaltending from Chad Johnson who was in goal for all six of their wins until he hit a snag against Tampa Bay and was pulled after two periods trailing 4-1. Still, hes sitting at a fine 2.12 GAA with a 13-5-1 record.This isnt easy, said Flames coach Glen Gulutzan. You hope you create these runs and we got ourselves back above board but its a lesson here too. You cant take your foot off the gas at all, you cant lose little battles, you cant lose face-offs at the rate we were, which caused us a lot of trouble and disrupted our team a little bit. ' ' '
