Rio Ferdinand, a Manchester United legend, believes Arsenal will win the Premier League this season.
Mikel Arteta’s men have the “belief, quality, and tranquility to win the title,” according to the former England defender.
The Gunners are five points clear of Manchester City and have a game in hand on their nearest rivals as the season enters the second half. Many fans and analysts predict that Pep Guardiola’s defending champions would go after Arteta, his former assistant, and his teammates during the run-in.
Arsenal have not won the Premier League since the legendary ‘Invincibles’ season of 2003/04, whereas City have a roster of decorated, battle-hardened stars who have won four titles in five seasons. Nonetheless, Ferdinand is certain that the tide is turning and that the trophy will be returned.
