NO FAILURE AT OT

Gary Neville has come and claimed that Arsenal are worthy champions this season and they have won the title rather than United throwing it away. In an interview with the BBC he said:

"Manchester United haven't lost the league, Arsenal have won it,"

"I don't care if Manchester United had had one of our best ever seasons, it still would have been impossible for us to win the league."

"In this country we like to say 'look at Manchester United, look at Chelsea, Liverpool, Newcastle - they have failed'.

"But one team this year could go 38 matches unbeaten. If they did that next year they would win the league again.

"If Arsenal had lost the usual number of games teams do in a season, three to four, we would have still been involved in the championship race this weekend."
