Tottenham Hotspur manager Harry Redknapp has told North London rivals Arsenal that they can forget about winning the Premier League title this season.
The Gunners slipped out of the top four after being held to a 1-1 draw at Middlesbrough on Saturday and Redknapp believes that spells the end of their championship challenge.
"Arsenal aren't going to win it this year,' Redknapp said. "I can't see them coming back into it and winning the championship."
Liverpool sit on top of the table but Redknapp feels the eventual winners will come down to a battle between second place Chelsea and defending champions Manchester United, who are currently in third place.
"One of those two will win," Redknapp said. "That's not being too clever, though, is it? Because there's only Liverpool up there as well with them."
"And I think Liverpool rely so heavily on (Steven) Gerrard and (Fernando) Torres. If something happened to Gerrard, I don't know what they'd do, really. So I still see them being short of Chelsea and Manchester United."
Redknapp's Tottenham held United to a 0-0 draw at White Hart Lane on Saturday.
