Robbie Savage has been impressed by the
improvement shown by Jose Mourinho's team of
late, while Pep Guardiola has overseen two
defeats in his last three games
Manchester United will finish above Manchester
City in the Premier League table this season,
according to Robbie Savage.
The player-turned-pundit has been impressed by
the improvement shown by Jose Mourinho & Co.
in recently weeks, notably the win over Crystal
Palace in midweek.
Meanwhile, City have lost two of their last three
Premier League games and now find themselves
seven points off leaders Chelsea, and Savage, a
former youth team player at Old Trafford, now
expects United to claim the Manchester bragging
rights this season.
"On current form in the battle to rule Manchester,
Jose Mourinho looks like a man on the march
while Pep Guardiola is only shuffling," Savage
wrote in his column for the Mirror .
"I have been far more impressed with Manchester
United over the last six weeks than with Man City,
who have stalled after making such an impressive
start in the Premier League."
He added: "I tipped United to win the title back in
August. Sadly that is going to be beyond them,
because the 13-point gap to Chelsea at the top is
too much to make up.
What Gundogan injury means for Pep
"But as I also said in this column last week, I
think the worst is over for Mourinho at Old
Trafford now.
"Of all the top-four contenders, they look most
capable of stringing together a run of six or seven
wins. The table doesn’t lie, and United may not
win the title – but I still think they will finish above
City."
