According to a legend, Arsenal and Tottenham would not lift the Premier League title this year
It seems like this English legend doesn't believe Arsenal and Tottenham are favorites
Manchester City has not had its best moments in this Premier League. Pep Guardiola's side suffered a series of setbacks and have lost three of their last matches. The first against Newcastle United in the Carabao Cup, the second against Wolves in the Premier League and recently a defeat to Mikel Arteta's Arsenal from the Emirates Stadium in London.
The situation for Mikel Arteta's team continues to look favourable. The Gunners team remains unbeaten in this Premier League and is positioned in second position. Last season, the London team came close to taking the Premier League title. However, a series of poor results saw City rise in contention and clinch the treble last season.
Meanwhile, other teams like Liverpool are still in the race to improve. Jurgen Klopp's side have not had the best performance since that defeat to Spurs. In the same way, the controversy has caused a kind of demotivation in the squad that has been noted in the recent results. A draw against Brighton was enough to keep the Merseyside team in the top positions.
On the other hand, Tottenham along with Ange Postecoglou are doing things right. The white team is the first place in the PL Standings. Despite being level on points with Arsenal, Spurs are first due to a higher number of goals in favour. Despite the good momentum of teams like Arsenal and Tottenham, this legend does not think that both are favorites to win the Premier League this year.
Who will win the Premier League?
According to Roy Keane, former Manchester United footballer and legend of that club, despite the poor results of Manchester City, Pep Guardiola's team is still the favorite to take the English championship again this season. These were his words for the Stick to Football podcast:
Quoted by Manchester Evening News
If you look at the two league games last year, City were so far ahead. It’s definitely progress for Arsenal, but I wouldn’t change my mind of who will win the league, I will stick with City, Keane stated.
