Jamie Carragher believes Arsenal's 'Invincibles' record could soon be equalled by a Premier League side in the modern era.
The former Liverpool defender has frequently said that Arsene Wenger's 2003-04 side were toughest team he encountered over the course of his career as a player.
But after seeing Liverpool and Manchester City take unbeaten runs deep into recent campaigns, Carragher feels that another team will go the distance sooner or later.
In the 2019-20 campaign, Liverpool held an unbeaten run until a trip to Watford in February and last season, City's run lasted until January when they lost against Liverpool at Anfield.
'The unbeaten achievement - you are always going to lose games in a Premier League season,' Carragher said on the Sky Sports Football Show.
'You can get so close like Liverpool did this season and the Watford thing happened. I do feel like the last couple of years, teams are getting closer.
'We know how tough it is, but I feel like the rules of winning the Premier League have changed from losing five or six games to two or three.
'So, I think teams are getting closer to it, but what happened with Liverpool shows how tough it is.
'How strong Liverpool have been this season - they go to a team near the bottom of the league and get beat convincingly.
'Arsenal Twitter that night was pretty pleased and rightly so, that's something very special associated with that club and that team.'
Liverpool were 25 points clear of City this season when football was indefinitely suspended due to the coronavirus outbreak in March.

I'm happy he acknowledged it was very tough to achieve that feat, let me tell you man, it can happen in other advance leagues, but not in EPL again, because EPL is too competitive. Once a Gunner always a Gunner
