Manchester City great David Silva says only Arsenal can stop them winning the Premier League this season.

Silva announced his retirement last month after suffering a knee injury in Real Sociedad preseason training.

They have an amazing team with some amazing players," Silva told the Mirror. This is Pep's eighth season at City. The first year he was getting used to the Premier League, but now they are almost unstoppable.

Arsenal are the only team I can see who maybe have a chance of challenging City. The rest? I don't think they can."

He added: I watched nearly all of City's games in the Champions League last season.

I couldn't win it when I was there, but I'm so happy for the club that they were finally able to do it.

They deserve it. The club deserves it, the supporters deserve to win the Premier League, Champions League and FA Cup the Treble. It was an amazing achievement."
