Inevitable

It was only a matter of time until Sir Alex made some sort of response. With Manchester City buying players left, right and centre he had to.

Let's take a look at what he had to say:
"It won't be easy for them to win anything, even with the players they have bought.
Fair point.

"I can't look at them as our main competitors. Liverpool and Chelsea are our main competitors."
He is dissing the Manchester United - Manchester City rivalry and Arsenal would probably be feeling a bit miffed as well.

"They have bought a lot of high-profile players but they have 10 strikers. That is a hell of a lot. I have not spoken to all the managers but the one or two I have are saying 'Who are they going to leave out?'
"How does he pick a team? We are all interested."
Very good point and one that the big teams continually struggle to deal with. Someone isn't going to be unhappy.

"Arsenal have the biggest job to do because they have sold Adebayor and don't seem to have the money the rest have. How Arsene develops his team will be his biggest test. The one thing we know about Arsenal is that they will play some of the best football you will see and create chances. They could easily re-establish themselves and challenge for the league again."
Has some soothing words for Arsenal fans.

As we said before, will be a fascinating season ahead.
