Michael Owen says Manchester United cannot be ruled out of the Premier League title race, despite them being eight points behind leaders Arsenal.
The Premier League title race took another twist on Saturday as Arsenal twice came from behind to beat Aston Villa 4-2 in the early kick-off. That result moved Mikel Arteta’s side beyond Manchester City into top spot and they stayed there thanks to a slip-up from City.
Pep Guardiola’s side were held to a 1-1 draw by Nottingham Forest, with Chris Wood scoring an 84th-minute equaliser for the home side. Bernardo Silva rifled City in front, but the defending champions were guilty of missing several presentable opportunities as they ended the day two points behind Arsenal, who also have a game in hand.
