Arteta Warns Against Dismissing Manchester United’s Title Hopes Despite Struggles

Posted : 03 December 2024

Mikel Arteta has cautioned against writing off Manchester United's Premier League title hopes, despite their poor start to the season. As Arsenal prepare to face Ruben Amorim's rejuvenated side on Wednesday, Arteta emphasized that it is still early in the campaign, and teams like United could quickly climb back into contention.

 

 United are currently 15 points behind leaders Liverpool and four points outside the Champions League spots, but Arteta believes a winning streak could change the standings rapidly. "Any team that has the capacity to put five or six wins in a row is going to be up there," Arteta said.

 

Arteta also acknowledged the continued threat of Manchester City, who are enduring a rough patch. Pep Guardiola's side has lost their last four league matches, leaving them 11 points behind Liverpool. However, Arteta noted that City’s quality means they can never be ruled out. "If there is a team with the capacity to turn it around and start winning, it's City," he said, stressing that their potential to bounce back should not be underestimated.

 

Arsenal head into the match in strong form, sitting second in the Premier League, six points ahead of United. Arteta praised Amorim's early influence at United, who have seen two wins and a draw in their first three matches under the new manager. "You can see his fingerprints in what he wants to do straight away," Arteta said, noting Amorim's success with Sporting Lisbon and his ability to energize a team with new ideas.

 

Looking ahead, Arsenal will also face United in the third round of the FA Cup early next month. Arteta expressed excitement for the upcoming tie, noting that playing against strong opponents is a familiar challenge for Arsenal in the early rounds. "You have to beat the big teams to win it," Arteta said, underlining his team's determination to maintain their historic success in the competition.
