Berbatov: Two horse race for title, Chelsea and Man Utd

Dimitar Berbatov is convinced the two sides meeting at Stamford Bridge on Sunday will also fill the top two positions in the Barclays Premier League this season.

"I always think Manchester United and Chelsea will be the top two and I don't think this year will be any exception," he told MUTV.

"They will be our main rivals for the title.

"They have great players and a great coach. Everybody knows that. It is still early but I think the title will be between us two."

I'd be inclined to agree with Berbatov, only I feel Chelsea will not be our only rivals this year. I've been telling people since the end of last season to watch out for Arsenal, and they aren't disappointing my predictions so far. Even if they end up winning the league, I can take soalce in the fact that I was right. Ancelotti will come very close in the league, but will always be a stronger candidate for winning the Champions League, as his trophy haul at club level would suggest.

i think hes probably right, but it is early do write off arsenal. but i dont think they have what it takes to be consistent enough to last the entire season. manchesterhave played all the top teams already this season and are still near the top of the league.

Berbatov is ignorant,what a poor analysis,the season is not even in February,let him wait and see,he`ll swallow his words very soon.
