The greatest danger to Manchester City’s chances of winning the Champions League this year, according to former Manchester United striker Michael Owen, is Arsenal.
Based on their ability this season, Owen thinks Arsenal is among the top three teams in the Champions League.
This was stated by the former forward for Real Madrid and Liverpool following Arsenal’s 2-1 victory over Sevilla in their away Champions League match on Tuesday.

Remember that Man City defeated Inter Milan 1-0 in the championship game of the previous season to become the current defending champions in the competition.
“This Arsenal team presents one of, if not Manchester City’s greatest challenge in this competition, based on their skill and week-to-week performance. Owen told TNT Sports, “I think they are that good.”
The issue is that, as Man City has demonstrated, it can take a while to adjust to the competition and overcome these seasoned clubs if you’re new to it. I believe Arsenal will have this challenge this season.
“In terms of skill, I believe they are the second or third best team in it. However, given their inexperience, can I really see them winning out?Although it’s a lot to expect, their abilities are sufficient.
