Manchester United hero Denis Irwin has warned fans the title race is still not over.
Irwin opined on Manutd.com: "People talk about the title race being back on after the midweek results, but I don't think it was ever off. It's only ever finished when someone is confirmed as champions.
"Obviously before Wednesday's defeat at Wigan we had a very healthy lead over Manchester City, but despite the fact the advantage has been cut to five points we're still very much in pole position. We've now got two home games to come and you always have to feel confident we can get the job done at Old Trafford.
"Neither Sunday's game against Aston Villa or next weekend's match against Everton are going to be easy though because every team is fighting for points. We saw that on Wednesday at the DW Stadium where Wigan pulled off a shock win."
