United will not stay unbeaten, says Grant

AVRAM GRANT does not believe Manchester United can make it all the way through the season without defeat — but warned Alex Ferguson’s men have a habit of coming good in the end.

By his own admission, Ferguson believes the Red Devils have yet to play to their full potential, but nevertheless returned to the top of the Barclays Premier League following Saturday’s 7-1 demolition of Blackburn at Old Trafford.

United are unbeaten so far, with seven draws and eight wins from 15 league games, and have yet to concede a goal in Europe.
