Former Manchester United manager, Sir Alex Ferguson has claimed that Tottenham Hotspur will never win a Premier League title.
Ferguson stated this while in attendance at Newbury Racecourse this weekend, just hours before Tottenham’s dramatic comeback Premier League victory over Brighton on Saturday.
Recall that Brennan Johnson scored deep into stoppage time to secure all three points for Ange Postecoglou’s side as the match ended 2-1in favour of the host.
The result moved Tottenham up to fourth in the table.
Asked if Tottenham will ever win the Premier League, Ferguson burst out laughing and bluntly told Sky Sports’ Matt Chapman: “No!
He added, “No, ’61 was the last time they won it, well that is a long time.
“The opposition today with Liverpool and Manchester City being so powerful in the Premier League.
“Even for [Manchester] United now, we’re having to fight.”
