That remarkable turnaround means that United now have a good chance of competing for Champions League qualification this season. However, it is unlikely United will match Ferguson's side of 2012-13 which went on to win the Premier League title by 11 points, beating rivals City who finished second. Indeed, some of the Red Devils' most tricky challenges could still lie ahead with a tough run of fixtures in February. After a trip to Fulham next week, they face Paris Saint-Germain in the Champions League and Chelsea in the FA Cup before games against Liverpool and Crystal Palace at the back end of the month.</blockquote>
