Neville: too early to dismiss United challenge

GARY NEVILLE insists Manchester United are still in the running for the title. The England defender claims it is too early to dismiss their chances of dismantling Chelsea, who are already six points clear at the top.

United went down to Blackburn but Neville said: “This is the early part of the season and people are jockeying for positions like in the early rounds of a boxing match. You cannot predict who will win the league. We look at ourselves and are thinking about what we can do to improve results.

“We have to get our own house in order if we are going to talk about winning the championship.
