Manchester United, who won the trophy for the 19th time in history last season.

According to Ferguson, London's Chelsea, London's Arsenal, Manchester City, Liverpool, and Tottenham have strong enough teams to compete for the first place.

"I think five or six teams will fight for the title," Ferguson said. - In the South, there are London clubs, in the North - Manchester City and Liverpool. So, a tough job awaits.

Winning the championship is difficult, so teams need to plan for more than one year. We are doing well because we trust young footballers and give them chances."
