Red Devils have the self-belief to claim title, warns Neville

GARY NEVILLE has warned Chelsea that Manchester United are more confident than they were 12 months ago as the Barclays Premiership title race gathers pace.

The Red Devils extended their lead over the reigning champions to seven points despite Monday night’s 2-2 draw at Newcastle as their three-game winning run over the holiday period came to an end.

But 31-year-old skipper Neville believes they are better placed to mount a serious challenge than they were last season.
