The Premier League season is reaching a thrilling climax.

Former Premier League goalkeeper has claimed that Arsenal are out of this season's Premier League title race. 

This past weekend saw the battle for English football's top prize take another twist with defending champions Manchester City dropping points against Chelsea, whilst Liverpool and Arsenal registered wins. 

Liverpool currently sit top of the table two and four points ahead of Arsenal and City respectively, but this can change again on Tuesday night when Pep Guardiola's welcome Brentford to the Etihad Stadium. 

But while Arsenal have looked impressive in recent weeks following an emphatic 5-0 win over struggling Burnley on Saturday, James believes it will be either Liverpool and City who will be lifting the Premier League trophy in May.

"Even though Arsenal are banging in goals for fun at the moment, aside from Liverpool I don’t believe they’ve beaten anyone else of substance yet and when they beat Liverpool earlier in the month, I believe it was a foul on Virgil van Dijk for the second goal and the red card for Ibrahima Konaté made that game a bit farcical in the end," James told GGRecon

"I believe it’s a two horse race between Liverpool and Manchester City, with Arsenal making a bit of noise on the outside.”
