Nacho Monreal

Arsenal and Man United are one of the oldest rivals in the English Premier League as it started as old as the league existed, yet it not close to coming to an end. It is rather getting tougher.

Both teams are expected to clash again on Sunday as they battle to win the fourth position in the league table for a Champions League qualification as the Gunners are a point behind the Red Devils.

Nacho Monreal is one of the oldest players in the current Arsenal team and he has confirmed the fact that the rivalry between the two clubs is old because he met the nomenclature when he joined the North London outfit.

The Spanish left full-back who rated both teams as one of the best in the world said he expects a tough game on Sunday knowing that his side lost against the Red Devils in the FA Cup this season.

Nacho Monreal stated that there are nine games to play until the end of the season and his side cannot afford to slip off knowing that they have got West London outfit Chelsea also challenging for the spot.

With Liverpool and Man City already gunning for the first two slots and Tottenham seems to have sealed the third spot, Arsenal, Man United and Chelsea have been left to battle for the fourth position.
