Fergie taunts Arsenal: You won't fill Emirates
|
Manchester United boss Sir Alex Ferguson has taunted Arsenal, claiming they'll struggle to fill their new 60,000 capacity Emirates stadium.
"I won't miss Highbury," Fergie said. "I think it was a run-down stadium. The pitch was too small for top-class football teams and I think it helped Arsenal in Europe in particular.
"Moving to a better stadium will help them in the sense that the games will be better and there will be more room to play.
"It will be interesting to see what happens when they hit a little bit of a bad spell, whether they'll still be able to get 60,000 through the gates."
