United can win title

Manchester United manager Louis van Gaal insists they can still overhaul Premier League leaders Chelsea despite there being a 10-point gap between the two 07 RS Gold sides.

Van Gaal’s team’s 2-2 draw at West Brom on Monday has left them further in need of a positive result against Jose Mourinho’s side on Sunday. It promises to be the biggest test of the Dutchman’s Old Trafford reign yet with United still to have faced any of last season’s top four.

But the former Netherlands and Barcelona coach remains relaxed and claimed his team’s title hopes are not over just yet. “That’s possible but difficult to say because then I am arrogant,” he said. “But I have done it a lot of times.”

Van Gaal insisted his team’s failure to defeat West Brom did not mean their prospects against the unbeaten leaders should be dismissed. “Now we have to play Chelsea, but you cannot compare West Bromwich Albion with great respect,” he said.

“I think Chelsea and (second placed) Man City are another level. We have to see if we can beat them. I am already thinking it starts with the FUT 15 Coins offensive and also how the attackers are defending. You could see that in their (West Brom) first goal.”
