RIO FERDINAND insists that Manchester United will have had a better season than Arsenal if they fail to win the Premier League.
The Gunners sit four points ahead of Manchester City at the top of the table but Pep Guardiola’s team have a game in hand.
Rio Ferdinand believes that Man Utd’s season could still be classed as better than Arsenal’s
Man Utd have already clinched one trophy this season and are going for more
After Arsenal’s back-to-back draws with Liverpool and West Ham, momentum has shifted in favour of City, who are in incredible form and face the league leaders on April 26.
United have already tasted Carabao Cup glory this season and are still going strong in the FA Cup and Europa League.
They can also finish third in the Prem with them three points ahead of Newcastle in fourth.
Speaking on the Vibe with Five podcast, Ferdinand explained that the Red Devils can still have a better campaign than Arsenal.
He said: “If Arsenal don’t win the league and Man Utd finish third and just the one trophy they have had a better season.
“If you’re a player, forget fans, and you finish third and win a trophy, Carabao Cup whatever it is and the team above you finish second and win no trophies, who is the happier player?”
Ferdinand went on to say that he hopes Arsenal win the league over City.
The retired centre-back has heavily praised Mikel Arteta’s men for much of this season, previously saying that they played like champions after beating United 3-2 in January.

Ferdinand has also lauded Martin Odegaard, comparing him to Mesut Ozil.
Arsenal face Southampton next up and Granit Xhaka has insisted that his team will respond after their recent disappointments.
Meanwhile, City face a trip to Bayern Munich in the Champions League and a cup semi-final versus Sheffield United before they welcome the Gunners to the Etihad.
