EPL: Gallas names only team that can challenge Arsenal for title this season

Former France defender, William Gallas, has predicted that Manchester City will be the only team to challenge Arsenal for the Premier League title this season.

The Gunners are currently six points ahead of City who have dropped into third place, following a 3-1 loss to Nottingham Forest last weekend.

Brighton are however in second place behind Arsenal, having started the campaign brightly.

But despite the Seagulls' impressive start, Gallas still expects City to be the team to rival Mikel Arteta's men.

"It will be very interesting to see if they can maintain that performance until the end of the season, but we know the second part is always the most difficult time for any club," Gallas told Tribal Football.

"Right now, it looks like only those two teams, Arsenal and Manchester City, are really going to fight for the title."
