Sir Alex Ferguson's hilarious two-word response to Tottenham's Premier League title chances

Former Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has stated that he doesn't believe Tottenham will ever win the Premier League. He made this claim at Newbury Racecourse, just before Tottenham's dramatic last-minute victory over Brighton.

This isn't the first time Sir Alex has expressed his views on Tottenham. 15 years ago, he famously said 'Lads, it's Tottenham' to motivate his team. Despite Tottenham's recent success under Ange Postecoglou, Sir Alex's opinion hasn't changed.

In a thrilling match, Brennan Johnson scored a rare goal in the 96th minute, securing Tottenham's comeback. This was after Pape Matar Sarr equalised following Pascal Gross' first-half penalty for Brighton. The victory further separates Tottenham from Manchester United, who play on Sunday afternoon.

The opposition today with Liverpool and Manchester City being so powerful in the Premier League. Even for United now, we're having to fight."

When questioned if Spurs were more likely to win a league title before United win another one, he replied firmly: "No chance!"

United, now managed by Erik ten Hag, have had a tough season, losing nine of their 23 league games. They are a massive 14 points behind local rivals Manchester City, who are second in the table.
