Ferguson is not prepared to write off any of the traditional big four, even though Arsenal have endured a miserable summer and Liverpool are without a championship since 1990.
Sir Alex Ferguson: "We used to talk about a top four, with ourselves, Arsenal, Chelsea and Liverpool.
"You can't say that any more.
"Manchester City have definitely come into the frame. They have a buying power better than the rest of us.
"Maybe having the run in the European Cup just stretched Tottenham too much last season and they ended up being out of the top four.
"But you look at those teams and say any one of them could win the league."
