Rio Ferdinand in a fit of laughter at Arsenal and PL’s title win

Former Manchester United star Kieran Richardson has claimed Arsenal are “30 years” away from winning the Premier League title again. as he said Vibe with Five.

Rio Ferdinand had a fit of laughter at his former team-mate’s claims as he believes Man United are “a miles away” as are Arsenal.

It’s been almost 20 years since Arsenal last tasted glory as English champions, so from that perspective they’re heading towards the 30-year mark.

Mikel Arteta is building a young team in north London which he hopes can one day lead to the club and return to the top of English football.

But Richardson, who played for Man United during his career, shared he supports Arsenal and thinks “we’re miles away from that”.

“With Arsenal we have our young players and we think long-term,” said Richardson.

“We are miles away from that. We’re 30 years away, bruv.”

Ferdinand then replied with a laugh: “30 years wrong? He said ’30 years break’. Who will win the league first from Arsenal and Man United?

Richardson’s response: “It’s difficult. We have the basics. We have the young players. Man United don’t even have that.”

Ferdinand then added: “But you (Arsenal) also got bare deadwood. Us too (Man United). We’re miles away from that, too.”

With Pep Guardiola and Jurgen Klopp officiating the game with Manchester City and Liverpool respectively, it will take something special to overtake these two.

They accumulate 90+ points just to win the Premier League title, never mind they lose a few games, you can’t even draw a few.

With seven Premier League games remaining, it will be interesting to see whether both Man City and Liverpool will win their remaining games.

The pressure of making each other fight for the title could lead to some slip-ups, plus the FA Cup semi-final and Champions League games where they could also meet in the final.
