Sir Alex Ferguson: Manchester United can recover to win the league

Former Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson says the team can overturn a poor start to win the Premier League, despite being eight points adrift of leaders Arsenal.

Er. no they can’t, for two very obvious reasons, firstly they have a manager who has no experience of managing club where you’re expected to win the big trophies every year, no offence Everton,  and secondly they don’t have enough top quality players or the depth of squad to compete with Chelsea and Man City.

I would agree with Sir Alex that United could still win the title, but only if he was still in charge, with Moyes no not a chance.

I thought United made a huge mistake appointing him, although as an Arsenal fan I was quite happy with it because they instantly put themselves out of the running for the Premier League title and Champions League. 

Moyes may well take United to the FA or League Cup final, but that’s about it and after so many years of domination it looks like United will have to be content with being just another team, in fact given how poorly they’re playing and how they’ve struggled to beat the likes of Stoke and Sunderland they might not even finish in the top four.


I must say seeing United struggle is giving me almost as much pleasure as seeing my team at the top of the table.
