Manchester United boss Ferguson: Arsenal blown away by Chelsea as our greatest rivals

19.07.11 | tribalfootball.com

Manchester United bossSir Alex Ferguson refuses to write off Arsenal's title threat.
Ferguson admits Arsenal have been replaced by Chelsea as their greatest challenger.
He told the Daily Mail: "Look, you thought they were going to have a real chance last season. They got to the very brink and that means they’re going to be challengers this season. But it’s not easy to win the league. We waited 26 years at one point. It’s 20 years since Liverpoollast won it. It happens sometimes.
"That’s one way (of looking at it) but, honestly, you’ve got to remember the way that Jose arrived andChelsea all of a sudden won their first six games in a row and we were all chasing our bloody tails. I thinkArsenal got caught in the draught that Chelsea created. And of course not winning the title for six or seven years has put a pressure on them."
