Football’s so called big four are not having the stranglehold that they once had on the Premiership and now he believes there are a few sides that could finish in the top four.
But Sir feels that there is only two clubs that can battle out the race to win the Premier League outright and that may upset Arsenal’s Arsene Wenger, as his choice is United and Chelsea.
"I had a feeling about there being a change last season. The top teams are losing games and more points than ever through the early part of the season," said Sir.
"That gives rise to the hope that it could be a very competitive league. But my experience tells me that two teams break away towards the last part of the season."
But when it comes to picking the fourth Champion’s League spot, Sir admits that it is a hard one to predict.
He added: "I could toss a coin and that could be my best chance of deciding who could break into the top four out of Tottenham, Aston Villa, Everton and Manchester City with all the money they have.
"That's a difficult competition in itself and any one of them is capable of doing that."
