Wayne Rooney is confident that a win for Manchester United against Arsenal on Sunday would shake up the Premier League title race and increase United’s chances of retainingits trophy.
“I think at the minute there’s 28 games to go, anything can happen, one result can turn the league on its head,” Rooney told Sky Sports News. “We’re still within touching distanceand to get a victory on Sunday will put us in a great position I think. It is the perfect fixture for us. Arsenal are obviously doing really well but with our current form, it is a chance for us toget a bit closer in the table.”
The England striker added that while he still thinks Arsenal has faded away from recent title challenges, this year’s outfit looks to have improved: “Ithink they’ve got some great players and you know they’re a good team…“[that seems] in a better place, they seem stronger so it will be interesting to see,” he said.
