Man Utd No2 Phelan: We're upbeat on top four finish

Manchester United No2 Mike Phelan says they're capable of finishing in the top four this season.

United are the form team of the Premier League under Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, winning seven and drawing one of his eight games in charge, as well as triumphing in two FA Cup ties.

On the race for a top-four spot, Phelan said: “We're chasing a pack but I have known Manchester United claw back points before.

“We can only do our own job, keep doing what we've been doing, keep pressing all of the right buttons.

“We're going to lose a few games, which happens in football, but at this moment in time we're winning a few as well."
