Roy Keane clashed with fellow Sky Sports pundits on Sunday night as he insisted that there is no evidence that Mikel Arteta can win the league with Arsenal next season.

Arsenal could only manage a disappointing 1-1 draw with Manchester United at Old Trafford on Sunday night as they fell to 15 points below Liverpool in the race for the Premier League title.

The result means Arsenal are on course to finish second in the league for the third season in a row.

And speaking after the match, Keane questioned whether Arteta could win a title with the Gunners next season, asking his fellow pundits: “What makes you think the manager can do it?”

“They've got close over the last few years, but City will be strong next year and I'm sure Liverpool will be too,” Keane pointed out.

Fellow pundit Jamie Redknapp disagreed with Keane, opining that if Arsenal “sign an elite striker they'll challenge for the title”.

But Keane also questioned the team’s overall mentality, saying that the Gunners “didn't have any swagger about them” today despite beating PSV 7-1 in the Champions League in midweek.
