The Serbian claims that Manchester United will not give up their healthy lead on top of the Premier League and will look to maintain their superb form till the end of the season.
With the Red Devils comfortably cruising in the points table, there is reason for optimism at the Theatre of Dreams that the Premiership trophy will return to its most favoured cabinet.
Sir http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Alex-c4752 Ferguson’s troops are already seven points clear going into the New Year, while nearest contenders Manchester City are still far from reaching top form.
Following a hectic fixture list, which involved games against the likes of West Bromwich Albion, Swansea City and Newcastle United, the Reds picked up two wins and a draw, something which could play a pivotal role in deciding the season in May.
However, with the side suffering because of a defensive crisis, Sir Alex has been concerned with their attack minded approach in recent weeks, although his worries would have subsided following the return of skipper http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Nemanja-Vidic-c27550.
The Serb has been ravaged with injuries this past year, but has finally overcome his fitness problems and started the weekend clash with West Brom at Old Trafford.
While his presence will help the 19-time English champions to keep out most opponents, the former Spartak Moscow man reiterated that the team needs to be vigilant and maintain their impressive start to the campaign.
"It is good to have this [seven point] advantage. But we have to be careful. There is still a long way to go. We have the experience of last year when we were eight points in front and in the end it didn’t finish well,” said the defender told MUTV.
"I think this season is different. We are more mature. We have young players who have the experience from last year. That is a big help for the team. With the experience we have already, we can do well I think,” Vidic was quoted as saying to Manchester United’s
in-house Media Channel.
Fergie’s players face a tough away trip to Wigan Athletic today, the same venue where they suffered a 1-0 defeat last time and it eventually cost them the Premier League crown.
