We will always be No 1 - Ferguson
OLD TRAFFORD SHOWDOWN
Man Utd boss Sir Alex Ferguson
Match preview
Feature: All in the mind
Analysis: How Man Utd can win
Ferguson's view
Wenger's view
Sir Alex Ferguson insists Manchester United will always be the top team in England as they prepare to face Arsenal at Old Trafford on Sunday.
The Gunners are Premiership champions, unbeaten in 49 league games and 11 points ahead of Manchester United.
But United boss Ferguson said: "Every player wants to play for Manchester United and it will always be the same.
"Arsenal's unbeaten record is terrific but we are ahead of everyone else in England when it comes to tradition."
Ferguson admits that it will be very difficult for his side to regain the Premiership title if they don't win Sunday's match at Old Trafford.
It gives us a chance to shut people up
Rio Ferdinand
But he insists that his players can cope with the weight of expectation on them.
He added: "I have always trusted my players and they have always been able to handle the pressures of being the top team in England.
"The players have repaid me by being the dominant force of the Premiership."
And United defender Rio Ferdinand insists they can recover after their poor start to the Premiership season, starting against Arsenal.
Realistically, this could be the best opportunity for a team to end Arsenal's incredible run

"I have heard people say we are finished - trust me, we are far from that," Ferdinand told MUTV. "There is no shift in power.
"We would be lying if we said our performances have been consistent this season, but this club has been in the top two or three in the Premiership since it started and that is not going to change.
"We know Sunday's game is a massive one for us but if we can get three points, it could be the start of a good period for us. It gives us a chance to shut people up and get our season back on track."
