Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson insists Premier League title was never in the bag Many observers felt that the all-Manchester duel was over when City, after consecutive draws, seemed to come apart at the seams during their 1-0 defeat at Arsenal, which came in the wake of United's 2-0 victory over QPR. But then came Wednesday night's turnaround when United were swept aside by relegation-threatened Wigan while City beat West Bromwich Albion. Saturday's 6-1 rout of Norwich has cut United's lead to two points and suddenly United are feeling the heat once again ahead of their home meeting with Aston Villa on Sunday. After seeing a 12-match unbeaten run, which had brought 34 points, halted, Ferguson was quick to focus on the consecutive home matches against Villa and Everton as a platform to take into the trip to City on April 30. "We had six games to go, six games left to play, and I would never think that it's over, not in the fact that we still had difficult league games at Wigan, City and Sunderland," Ferguson said. Everton at home is against one of the better form teams in the league at the moment so we know it's a hard job and that's what the league's about. We know that it's hard at the start and hard at the end. I don't have any doubts about their temperament. I think there's enough experience in the place. It happens and we're aware of that. Two or three years ago Liverpool beat us 4-1 at Old Trafford remember? And that genius Benitez said that they planned to beat us by playing long balls behind us. While Paul Scholes is sure to feature after being rested for the trip to the DW Stadium, Ferguson could also call on Nani, who came on as a substitute in Wigan following several weeks out with an ankle problem. "He's back and that's important," Ferguson added. We gave him 20 minutes so we'll consider him for Sunday. He's a good player, tough too, always wants the ball.
