Van Gaal insists Man Utd can still win title

Manchester United boss Louis van Gaal insists they remain in the title race after drawing with West Bromwich Albion.

The draw left United 10 points behind Chelsea yet Van Gaal believes they can catch them.

He said: "That's possible but difficult to say because then I am arrogant. But I have done it a lot of times.

"It is two points lost. I think we were the better team and I am very disappointed by the result. We were two times behind but I don't think West Bromwich Albion created too many chances.

"We gave the two goals away and we created four chances in the first half and seven in the second. We dominated the game.

"That's what I want as a coach and as a manager but the manager doesn't want a result like 2-2.

"I have said to my players I cannot be happy. I am happy about our play style but not the result."
