Liverpool legend, Graeme Souness, has said despite the resurgence of Manchester United, they are unlikely to win the Premier League this season.
According to him, the Red Devils have done well so far and exceeded all expectations but are unlikely to win the league title ahead of Arsenal and Manchester City.
Souness, however, did admit it is not impossible for Man United to win the PL title ahead of their rivals.

Man United are currently third on the Premier League log table, five points adrift of leaders Arsenal and three points behind second position Man City following their latest 3-0 win over Leicester City at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The former Scottish midfielder, while speaking on the chances of Manchester United winning the league this season, said it would take the collapse of Man City or Arsenal for Ten Hag’s men to lift the league trophy.
“No, it’s not impossible,” Souness said when asked by Sky Sports about Man United’s chances of winning the Premier League title.
“I very much doubt it. Several things would have to happen. Both City and Arsenal would have to have an incredible collapse – enough to fall off the cliff – I don’t think that will happen.”
