“It might be in Manchester United's hands - but it's not in
their pocket. We have to expect United to drop points and
we are not ready to concede that the title race is over yet.
It is a fact that the league is not in our control any more
and that if United win both their games they will be
champions. But we have to keep going and keep the pressure
on them right to the final day.
"We are hoping Everton can do us a favour. Rooney has no
fear about who he is playing or where. He has that lovely
arrogance and doesn't worry about the opposition. Rooney
respects the opposition and the occasion but doesn't fear
it."
