Michael Owen identifies just two teams capable of challenging Arsenal for the Premier League title next season. Arsenal recently clinched their first league title in 22 years, showcasing their significant investment in the squad last summer and benefiting from the decline of rivals like Liverpool and Manchester City. Despite some setbacks, Mikel Arteta's side proved resilient, securing their championship ahead of City.
Owen believes Manchester City will remain a formidable opponent even if Pep Guardiola departs. He emphasizes their strong youth core and predicts they will be right back in the title race, especially after competing closely with Arsenal this season. Additionally, Owen sees Manchester United as potential title contenders under Michael Carrick, citing their improved form since his arrival.
However, he rules out Liverpool as serious challengers, suggesting they need to regain their form to compete effectively. Owen describes United as possible "dark horses" for the title, noting their leap from the bottom half to a third-place finish under Carrick. With Arsenal emerging as favorites, the battle for next season's Premier League title promises to be intense, with City and United primed to challenge them.
