Former Chelsea star Frank Leboeuf has declared that Manchester City and Chelsea remain in the race to challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season.
Leboeuf emphasised that the Gunners have dropped four points against Chelsea and Sunderland in previous encounters.
“They [Arsenal] are still the big favourites [for the title], but they will have to prove it,” Leboeuf told ESPN.
“They lost four points against Sunderland and Chelsea. Manchester City are back, Chelsea are still there.
“We will have the winter period, which will start very soon, so let’s see,” he said.
Arsenal last won the Premier League title under legendary manager Arsene Wenger many years ago.
