"Chelsea like sitting back, trying to nick a 1-0 win.
"At United we go out to attack, running at teams with pace.
"I'd rather play 100 times on the attack than one defensive game.
"Winning would give us belief that we can go on and win the Premiership.
"In terms of points it won't make that much difference but a victory would be a stepping stone. These are the games you have to win to take the Premiership so we have to do well in these matches. If we can do that then we'll leave ourselves in a good position for the end of the season.
"We have shown we can lift ourselves for the big matches so we'll be looking to do that again. The Chelsea game will be very important for us, especially in terms of keeping our noses in front.
"But it's not a two-horse race just yet because there are still a lot of games to go. We have seen before how things can change quickly.
"I think in my first season here we were ahead of Arsenal for second place but then they came from nowhere to go above us.
"Anything can happen in football - just a couple of results can turn a season around. We're aware of that and that's why we want to keep winning and not allow teams such as Arsenal or Liverpool to get back into it.
"That's why we are going to need the experience of Paul Scholes, Gary Neville, Ryan Giggs and Ole Solskjaer in the season half of the season."
