Wayne Rooney, a former striker for Manchester United, stated that Arsenal and Manchester City are now the favorites to win the Premier League this year. Following Sunday’s 3-0 thrashing of Liverpool by City, Rooney was speaking on his BBC podcast. As a result, the champions are eight points behind leaders Arsenal. However, coming into the international break, City is now only four points behind the Gunners. Arsenal squandered points at Sunderland on Saturday, drawing 2-2 after giving up a goal by Brian Broberry in the 94th minute. Rooney stated, “I think it will be difficult for Liverpool now.” “I am aware that Arsenal lost points over the weekend, but given their overall performance and Man City’s recent winning streak, it will be challenging for Liverpool.” However, the season is still young, so you never know. I just believe that the current favorites are Man City and Arsenal.
