Manchester United look to end English Premier League title race – EPL news
The Championship elects of the English Premier League Manchester United are just one point away from winning their 19th League title and finally going past the http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Liverpool-c39809 record of 18 titles.
The most senior player in the team http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550 have urged their team to go out there and finish the job at the weekend against Blackburn Rovers.
The two influential men from Manchester United were talking to the official website of the club ahead of their team’s weekend game against Blackburn http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Rovers-c40385 at Ewood Park.
Centre back Vidic, who has been an absolute rock at the back for the Red Devils, said that mathematically the title may not be theirs as yet, but having a six-point advantage with two games to play is an enough reason to be confident.
“Mathematically it's not [certain] but I think it's a big advantage - six points clear with two games left,” said Vidic.
The http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Serbia-c3002 captain said that no one in the team wants it to go down to the final game, and let themselves be nervous and worried for that one point on the last day of the season. He added that it is better to finish the job a week earlier and make sure that
there are no nerves in the match against Blackpool.
“Obviously, we have to focus on the next game against Blackburn already to win the title. We don't want to come to the last game and to be nervous. We have a big advantage and we are nearly there,” said Vidic.
Nemanja Vidic was named captain by Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Neville-c14447 decided to call it a day. The centre back had been rumoured to leave the club in the summers, and the biggest reason behind that was believed to be his
wife who has not managed to settle in at Manchester.
However, the Chief Executive of the club http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/David-c10409 Gill flew out to hold talks and convinced him to sign a five-year extension. Ferguson handed him the armband to show how much he believes in his defender, and Vidic has paid back his belief with results on the
pitch.
Although he has already won three Premier League titles with United, he has not led the team to one yet. When United wrap up the championship and lift the trophy, Vidic feels it will be a surreal feeling for him as a captain for the first time. It is a responsibility
that he has taken as an honour and great pride.
He said, “It's important, first of all, to win the title. As well, to be captain of Manchester United is a big honour but, to lift the trophy, is even bigger. I'm just hoping we'll play properly next game and we can celebrate at Blackburn.”
The most decorated European footballer Ryan Giggs said that there is no doubt that his team is nearly there and he cannot wait to get his hands once again on the trophy.
Giggs has been at the club for nearly two decades and has won more League titles than anyone. He has also made most number of appearances for the club than any other player in the long and rich history of Manchester United.
The veteran has signed on for one more season, and that surely is expected to be his last but the hunger to win and his agility on the field will never suggest that he is already 37 years old.
