Man Utd miss out on Arsenal's record but Liverpool keep hopes alive

Manchester United will not have Arsenal’s golden Premier League trophy if they go on to win England’s top flight this season.

The Red Devils are the most successful team in Premier League history with 13 titles but have never won a golden trophy, as it is only reserved for champions who win the title without losing a game. 

That streak will now continue this season, even if they win the league, as they lost on opening day to Hull City. With that defeat, United will not be able to match the Gunners' feat, as they remain the only team in history to win a Premier League title unbeaten. 

Arsenal achieved this feat in the 2003/2004 season and have been the only team to ever do so in Premier League history. 

However, while the United will not be able to match Arsenal’s feat, Liverpool are still in with a chance this year. 

Although the Reds are yet to win a game two matches into this embryonic season, they are also unbeaten in those games. 

Andoni Iraola started their campaign with a 2-2 draw against Newcastle at St James' Park before managing the same result against Nottingham Forest at Anfield on Saturday afternoon. 

This keeps the Reds’ unbeaten start to the season, with 36 games left to match Arsenal’s remarkable feat. 

However, Iraola’s men are not the only team unbeaten after two games this season, as Manchester City are also yet to lose. 

Enzo Maresca’s men started their campaign with a 2-1 win over Bournemouth at the Etihad Stadium before thrashing Crystal Palace 4-1 in their second match of the season as Selhurst Park.
