Man Utd defender Evans: We can end Tottenham title hopes today

Manchester United defender Jonny Evans feels they can end Tottenham's title hopes today.

Spurs are eight points behind Sir Alex Ferguson's side and even further adrift of leaders Manchester City. So Evans is adamant that a United win in north London will make it officially a two-horse race.

"It would be massive if we won," he said. "It's a big game for us in the title race but even more so for Tottenham.

"They are just about within touching distance, but I think if we won we'd pretty much eliminate them from the race. It would be just us and City."

But Evans admits: "We have to be careful because they are a great side.

"Everybody has been impressed by their style of play. It's a really attacking style.

"They have a great squad, so it will be a tough game but we'll be aiming to win."
