Wenger rubbishes media claims that City can be the league winner

January 2, 2014 by 888Scoreonline

Manchester City and its arch rival Manchester United have always been the biggest hurdles for any team thinking of winning league title, and that why when both these teams could not show best of their skills this year, others start dreaming of league silverware into their showcases. Arsenal is one of them who is having a brilliant season this year so far, but you can call it their bad luck or City’s comeback in great style that Manuel Pellegrini’s army is marching towards the top, in fact, they are on the top again in the leaderboard. Everyone has his own views regarding who will be the winner this time and of course each of them has a biased decision including Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger who is not accepting City’s surging position in the table. Obviously, he is denying City chances to win the trophy despite their brilliant affords in last few matches where they won the matches they had almost lost at one point of time. This is true that City has shown a magnificent form in the last month and won eight matches along with one draw that surged their position to top and this is what rivals are not able to digest easily.

Top Sportsbooks are also in favor of City with highest odds in their favor followed by Chelsea and then Arsenal and Liverpool which matches the trend historically too. Wenger thinks they are as favorite to win the title as any other team is which includes both City and United, however, looking at current standings Arsenal, Liverpool, Chelsea and City are the hot favorite to take the crown. He said about his predictions, “Do you believe him that City are favorites? Not more than Chelsea, for me, or Man United. They have the squad, yes, they have a squad of names who can pretend to win it, but at the end of the day, it is down to what we do on the pitch.

“Are they, at the moment, completely unbeatable? Not for me. They have lost a number of games as well away from home. Man City have played one more game at home, than away. We have played one more game away, than at home, so it is open. We are not far. I will push very hard to get it done, yes.

“We cannot stop him from doing that. But for me, that is not a problem because when you are a professional football player, you do until the last day, of where you are, your best. If you don’t do that, you are not professional for me. I don’t question Sagna’s commitment until the last day of his contract.”
