Jose Mourinho believes the competition in this season's Premier League is fiercer than ever and insists no team will run away with the title.
Mourinho said: "It is more than a race, every game is open I think things are better, teams are better because they have spent money.
"Teams bought good players, teams with ambitions. Newcastle wants more, Aston Villa, Blackburn, Middlesbrough, Fulham and West Ham. They all want more, everybody wants more.
"So I think the competition is very hard. I don't think the kind of points we had to be champions in the previous season or the number of points Manchester United won it with last year will happen.
"It is a difficult number to reach again because it is more difficult to win matches. I can see a much more competitive league not just because of the top teams but especially because of the other group I mentioned."
