Sir Alex Ferguson never had rivalry like Jurgen Klopp's as 'dangerous' Liverpool claim made
Here is your Liverpool media round-up for Friday, April 8.
“You are always looking in the rear-view mirror to see who is coming up behind you and when you see someone you accelerate. Arsenal were catching us up. And their team was good enough to go above us, there was no question about that.”
Sir Alex Ferguson was reflecting on what many regard as the seminal rivalry of the Premier League era. Arsene Wenger won the Premier League three times in his first eight seasons in English football. It was Ferguson's Manchester United that claimed the rest.
The 1999 treble-winning campaign came immediately after Wenger's first title. It was the emergence of that Arsenal team that made his Manchester United better.
Yet, throughout that period, there was never a season in which both sides hit the 80-point mark. In fact, United and Arsenal have only done that once in Premier League history - the year after Thierry Henry left when the Gunners finished third behind Chelsea.
