Man City has won Premier League title, Agbonlahor hints, names teams to finish top four


Former Aston Villa striker, Gabby Agbonlahor has tipped West Ham to finish within the top four of the Premier League this season.

Agbonlahor believes the race for the top four this season has been ‘the most exciting in years, with Arsenal, Manchester United, Tottenham and West Ham all battling for the Champions League spot.

Four points separates Arsenal from fourth place and Manchester United in seventh and that gap could close by the end of the weekend.

Mikel Arteta’s side was beaten by Manchester City on Saturday but looks the best they ever have for years.

Tottenham and West Ham both won hard-fought games to pile on even more pressure.

And Agbonlahor said ”you can forget the title race because it has already been won by Manchester City, adding that the battle for the top four is where the most excitement is”.

Agbonlahor told talkSPORT: “Arsenal is dropping points, Spurs and West Ham are winning. This is going to be the most exciting race we’ve had for the top four in years.

“Man City will win the title quite comfortably, but the top four race is what I’m excited to watch this season.

“I”m so excited for this top-four race. West Ham isn’t going anywhere. Arsenal is looking like a proper team now, Spurs are as well.

“Manchester United can’t play any worse, so they are going to be fighting for that top-four place as well.

“I love everything about West Ham. Wouldn’t it be nice to see a different team getting fourth and into that Champions League football?

“Everything about the club I love and the way they play. When everyone is fit, you can name their starting XI every week.

“I think the reason why Spurs are the favourites is because of the manager. They’ve got the best manager out of the other teams trying to get into the top four – West Ham, Manchester United, Arsenal.

“He’s proven. Look what he’s done with Inter Milan, Chelsea, but especially with Inter Milan last season.

“To win the Scudetto when Juventus had been on top for nine years winning it.

“Him at that club now, he will be the reason they are my favourites for top four.”
