Arsenal Are Bigger Than Chelsea - Ferguson
-
Ferguson's comments come just two days before United and Chelsea do battle in the Premier League at Stamford Bridge, a game which is already being touted as a make-or-break game for the Red Devils, who have just four Premier League points far.
Although Chelsea have matched their Manchester counterparts in the success stakes recently, winning consecutive Premier League titles in 2005 and 2006, Sir Alex Ferguson believes that Arsenal are still regarded as his side's traditional rivals in terms of history and quality.
The Scot ackowledged that Chelsea's recent surge in fortune and finance has brought success, but he stated that over the history of the Premier League, Arsenal have been United's main threat.
He revealed that the contest for domination between himself and Arsene Wenger has given the English top-flight some of its most enduring moments.
He told the press: "If you look back over the last 12 or 13 years, who has it been? - Arsenal v Manchester United, Manchester United v Arsenal.
"Of course we've got Chelsea at the moment, that's without question, but the history of Arsenal versus Manchester means that you're not just talking about winning a football match, you're talking about your own history against the other team's history.
"There's a dominance attached to that. You want to be the dominant team and they want to be the dominant team - and we've had some volatile matches because of that.
"But you can't beat the history and the quality that both teams believe in, and the way they want to play has never changed."
Arsenal manager Arsene Wenger agreed with his long-time rival by admitting that the 'big games' in any season come against the current European champions.
He said: "It is usually the decider of the season - big games that tell you a lot about your team. Will they be capable of winning the big matches?
'You go into the season with the feeling that you must win the big games, and the big game usually is Manchester United." -
I think ah lex will have a hard time playing mind game with the chelsea coach.
This world cup winner have better use of his time in making his team the champion.
I dun think wenger will be drawn in the fox hole created by ah lex.
Ah Ben have only hatred and love for Ah Mour.
So, Ah Lex will have a lonely season in barking at the wrong tree.
