United have had a good season so far under Jose [Mourinho]. "They've put themselves in a good position but City are flying, there's no getting away from that."But what you always have to do - Sir Alex Ferguson always used to say this to us when I was a player under him - look they're going really well, just stick with them and be as close as you can be when it comes to Christmas or New Year. "See how many injuries people get, loss of form, so as long as you're close enough to them to give them a fight, and put pressure on them that's what it's all about."</blockquote>
