Former Arsenal boss Arsene Wenger has written off Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s Manchester United for winning the Premier League title this season.
The Red Devils have had quite an underwhelming start to their new season as they have drawn two games, lost one and managed one victory so far after four games in the Premier League. New arrivals Harry Maguire, Daniel James, and Aaron Wan Bissaka have shown that there is hope for the future but it might take some time before Manchester United can actually start competing for the Premiership once again.
Arsenal managed to win three Premier League titles under the reign of former Gunners manager Arsene Wenger and the Frenchman clearly knows how to win the top-flight prize in style as he was the only manager to go unbeaten throughout the ‘Invincibles’ campaign.
But the 69-year-old has expressed his concerns over the current Manchester United team and stated that the club has potential but they are not yet ready to compete against the likes of Manchester City and Liverpool at the moment.
While speaking to beIN Sport, Wenger said, “When you see Man Utd, they are one of the examples where there is a potential there. But they have not found a collective way. Maybe these players are not mature enough to carry the team play of a team like Man United, altogether. That is the question mark now.
Wenger also admitted that he does not trust the current youth of Manchester United to deliver the glory days of the past, ”You feel there is something coming out but it’s not ready. When you watch them play, they are not a candidate to fight for the championship. Will they emulate what (Ryan) Giggs, (Paul) Scholes, (David) Beckham did over a number of years? Personally, I’m not convinced.”
