Sir Alex Ferguson doesn’t agree with winger Nani on Arsenal’s title chances
Recently Manchester United Portuguese winger Nani claimed that Arsenal were not title contenders. The United winger seemed very confident in the dismissing the Gunner’s title chances, saying they did not have the squad or the quality to have a shot at the
title this season. However, Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson did not agree with his Portuguese winger.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nani-c27299 claimed that he felt that either Manchester United or Chelsea had a chance of winning the Premier League crown, to which Wenger sarcastically labelled the winger as being “1600 times more intelligent than me.” The French manager is confident about his
side’s chances this season and did not take kindly to being told otherwise, especially by a United player.
Ferguson has been in the game much longer and with his experience, he refused to rule Arsenal out of the title race at this point in the competition. The United boss was certain that the Gunners could surprise everyone and win the league if they maintained
their current form. They are currently third on the table and face fourth place http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Chelsea-c38786 this Monday.
Ferguson commented on the title race while speaking to reporters, “I don't think there will be anyone outside ourselves, Chelsea or Arsenal. Those three will certainly be there. I know Harry (Redknapp) is talking up his chances at Tottenham but they are
involved in the Champions League, which is a new thing for them.”
Ferguson went on to speak about teams which had improved this season; he mentioned Harry Redknapp’s Tottenham side which had made it to the UEFA Champions League round of last 16. He maintained that the Premier League title was still undecided, despite his
side being in the lead. The United boss even said that arch rivals Manchester City had a shot; they currently sit on second place.
He added, “If they get through the next stage it is not easy to manage European competition at that level and doing your league programme, plus FA Cup ties. Usually experience gets you through. Manchester City have got a chance of course. But they will also
have the Europa League that will make it difficult. Maybe they, and Harry too, could buy in January because it is very difficult to manage both.”
