The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/England-c749 midfielder claims that a win for any of the Manchester clubs will not be the penultimate factor in deciding this season’s Premier League.
From http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson, everyone has reiterated the importance of tonight’s game, saying that win for either side will surely confirm the destination of the Premiership trophy.
City go in to the game as favourites owing to their recent form, but United have proven countless times that these things matter little when the action takes to the pitch.
The Red Devils will surely be looking to secure three points tonight but given the team they are up against, it is a task much easier said than done.
http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Sergio-c33030 Aguero, there is proven pedigree at the Etihad and it is going to reckoning place for the most anticipated match in the League’s 20
year history.
There have been many upsets during this topsy-turvy season, but everything boils down to this. No fact or figure can predict the outcome of the tie, but one thing is certain that the winner will be greatly poised to lift silverware in the next few weeks.
However United midfielder http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Michael-Carrick-c25282 has disagreed with his notion and claims that the derby will not determine the outcome of the Premier League.
"Whatever happens, the title race won't be over at the final whistle," the former Tottenham Hotspur man said.
"Obviously we're the two main contenders and this is going to be a big three points, but there will still be two games left to play and the way the last couple of weeks have gone, I don't think you can look at the derby as a decider. Who knows what might
still happen? We can only look at this game as an opportunity to win three points.”
"Don't get me wrong, it would be a massive step towards the title if we win, but it won't hand us the trophy,” the veteran was quoted as saying.
United travel to the Etihad Stadium, in a game which is expected to be witnessed by over 650 million fans across the globe.
