Manchester United midfielder Tom Cleverley is determined to shake off his injury woes.

The midfielder has been sidelined for two months with an ankle injury but is hoping to push for a spot back in Sir Alex Ferguson's side this month.

Cleverley, 22, is considered one of England's most exciting prospects and said: "We have been unlucky with injuries this season but that is why you have got squads.

"We have strength in depth and hopefully we can get some of those injured players - including myself - back soon.

"I am 100 per cent certain that we can beat Manchester City to the title.

"We were always confident we could win the league. Nearly every player in our squad has won a title so we have the experience.

"United have a fantastic team spirit and I think that, after disappointments, we always bounce back and we always had the potential to go on a run of our own."
