Ferdinand slammed over ‘nonsense’ theory about Arteta to Man Utd: ‘That’s known as clickbait’

Rio Ferdinand has come under fire from former Sky Sports News anchor Jeff Stelling for his assertion that Mikel Arteta would “100%” switch from Arsenal to Manchester United given the opportunity.

Over his five years at the club, Arteta has elevated the Gunners to the status of title contenders in the Premier League, as evidenced by Arsenal’s victory over Man City last season.

With 12 games remaining, Arteta’s team is currently two points behind leaders Liverpool in the title race once more this season.

Man Utd, on the other hand, were eliminated from the Champions League during the group stage and, until recently, under Erik ten Hag, had not been able to find any consistency in the Premier League.

Even that Sir Jim Ratcliffe might decide to start Ten Hag in his place at the end of the season if he doesn’t place in the top four has been rumored.

Ferdinand said, “Arteta would leave Arsenal to join Man United, 100% of the time,” in response to a question on his FIVE YouTube channel about what Arteta would do if he were offered the position at Man United.

“No one is claiming it’s true, but if Man United suddenly announced, ‘Do you know what, Erik ten Hag, thank you,’ or if Erik ten Hag had been stolen by Bayern Munich and went there, then Man United would claim that Arteta was at the top of the list.

Arteta is approaching the guys and saying, “Listen, guys, this has been emotional, but I have to move, I have to go.”

However, Stelling called out Rio Ferdinand’s “nonsense” remarks regarding Arteta joining Manchester United on talkSPORT, saying as follows: “If given the opportunity, Mikel Arteta would ‘100%’ go to Old Trafford and become Manchester United manager.”

“Now, surprise, surprise, Rio was giving a speech on his YouTube channel.

“Rio, I believe that’s called clickbait. Buddy, we’re not all as stupid as we appear. What nonsense! Although we are gullible, we are not that gullible.

After a shaky December, Arsenal has won six straight Premier League games, scoring 25 goals in those games to reclaim their spot in the title fight.

Over the weekend, the Gunners defeated Newcastle 4-1, and Eddie Howe, the manager of the Magpies, is adamant that Arteta’s team can win the championship.

“Off the back of the game I have to say they’re right in it, the title race,” Howe said following the game. They rank among the top teams we’ve faced so far this season.

(4-2-3-1) Ugarte first Premier League start, Confirmed Manchester United line up vs Crystal Palace – The Most strongest lineups ever

Published

In the Premier League on Saturday night, Manchester United plays Crystal Palace.

United is confident going into the match after winning 3-0 against Southampton the previous weekend and a dominant 7-0 over Barnsley in the Carabao Cup on Tuesday.

Rasmus Hojlund and Mason Mount’s return to full training at Carrington earlier in the week has given Erik ten Hag’s team momentum.

In the Carabao Cup, Crystal Palace also advanced to the next round, but their start to the Premier League has been disappointing as they have only managed two points from four games.

BREAKING: THEEE Arsenal’s major starters including the only player who has been impressive this season are not in contention to face Man City today tomorrow as leaked information surface online

On Sunday, Arsenal will go to the northwest to play Manchester City at the Etihad Stadium in a match that will determine who finishes top of the Premier League league. William Saliba has cautioned the Gooners not to get ahead of themselves; winning the league will need more than just defeating City, even though winning that game increases the Gunners’ chances of winning the league.

In their road match versus City during the Premier League run-in last year, Arsenal and the defending champions drew 0-0. Following that tie with City, Arsenal’s detractors asserted that they lost the title match because they chose to play for a draw rather than a win, which would have given them three points and won the league by a single point.

The Gunners haven’t defeated City at the Etihad Stadium in nine years, but on Sunday they have the opportunity to disprove the doubters.

For this weekend’s heavyweight encounter, Arsenal manager Mikel Arteta should have a stronger team despite the absences of Martin Odegaard and Mikel Merino. Hopefully, Kevin De Bruyne’s injury will prevent him from playing for the Citizens.

Arsenal’s defensive star Saliba has expressed the team’s resolve to win on Sunday, but even a victory over City will not guarantee them the title of league winners. Saliba says that beating City on Sunday is undoubtedly in the cards, but he also says that the club needs to work hard to play consistently after that.

(4-3-3): Mikel Arteta excludes FOUR first team players from the squad to face Man City tomorrow to create room for new signings and academy players

On Sunday, Arsenal will play Manchester City, their likely title challengers, at the Etihad Stadium, capping up maybe the most difficult week of the team’s season.

Even though this big match takes place just a month into the new campaign, it is impossible to overstate how important an away victory in Manchester would be. Although Arsenal has not lost to the Cityzens in their last three meetings, they have not triumphed at the Etihad since Pep Guardiola became manager.

Since Brentford in November 2022, no visiting club has actually taken all three points at City’s stronghold. Without a doubt, it’s a difficult location to visit.

The visitors are without skipper Martin Odegaard and still carrying a very long list of injuries. Here is how we think Arteta’s Arsenal starting lineup will appear on Sunday in an attempt to avoid losing. Arteta may go all Tony Pulis on Sunday.

Arsenal vs. Man City lineup prediction
Potential starting lineup for Arsenal:
Raya; Havertz, Partey, Rice; Saka, Jesus, Trossard; White, Saliba, Gabriel, Timber
