Keegan backs United for title

Keegan backs United for title

06 May 2008 - 09:41

After seeing his Newcastle side defeated 2 goals to 0 at St James Park on Monday, Kevin Keegan still believes that Man Utd have the edge over their title rivals.

  • Predicted Chelsea line-up (4-2-3-1) vs Aston Villa, Palmer starts
  • Chelsea ready to sell four home-grown players

  • Asked if Avram Grant's side would be worthy champions, Keegan said: 'Yes they would, definitely.



    'I don't think they will be, but in any other season, apart from this one...



    'You usually have one exceptional side - I think this year, you have got two, and one of them has got to lose.



    'I think it will be Man United as champions. Cristiano Ronaldo has had such an outstanding season and that, along with the other great players they have just gives them the edge.



    'Despite the [state of the JJB] pitch I can't see them going to Wigan and losing. If you asked Avram Grant, he will go more in hope than expectation that they will.'
