Liverpool legend Jamie Carragher has said that Arsenal can win a quadruple this season. He recently revealed that the Gunners could even surpass Manchester United’s legendary 1999 treble winners, and fans have been reacting.
According to him, Arteta‘s team definitely has the tools to win it all this season, and Arsenal are in a far stronger position now than Sir Alex Ferguson’s side was at this stage of their historic campaign.
Carragher, however, added that man-for-man, MUFC’s 2008 Champions League winners possess superior individual quality to Mikel’s side.
His words, “I recently watched a documentary about United’s treble, and what stood out was that few believed winning the three major trophies was possible halfway through that campaign. Arsenal are in a far stronger position right now – and have fewer obstacles in their way – than United in January 1999.
Player-for-player, Rooney’s peak United team – of which current coach Michael Carrick was a central figure – are superior to the Arsenal of 2026. If asked to pick a winner, United would get my vote. They have different qualities, one packed with attacking talent while the other is built on one of the most resolute defences of the past 10 years. Wherever you stand on who would emerge victorious, it would be a close, intense battle.”
WOW.
