Man Utd captain Evra: We're going to win the league

Manchester United fullback Patrice Evra was delighted with the manner of victory over Bolton Wanderers. Sir Alex's men secured a 3-0 victory over Bolton Wanderers on Saturday, and still have the likes of Phil Jones, Ashley Young and Tom Cleverley to return to the team.

"Everyone's coming back and in great form," Evra told MUTV after the game. "We still have some injuries but I think when everyone is back fit, it will give us the strength to win the title."

The left-back also says it's important to stop discussing rivals Manchester City instead concentrate on winning games.

"We have to keep talking about Manchester United. The most important thing was winning today. After that, it doesn't matter if they [City] win, lose or draw.

"We just need to have a rest and focus on the next game. I think people talk a lot about City, but we just need to be focused on what we do and how we play, and I think we're going to win the league.

"Today was a good afternoon for us. It was an important game, after the [FA Cup] win against City, to show we are really confident and we are back. It was really important to win today."
