In the Premier League title race, Manchester United has not been available for a long time and David de Gea does not want to pass them this season.
David de Gea insists in this season’s Premier League title race, Manchester United must make their presence felt.
United will go top of the table if they avoid defeat against Burnley at Turf Moor on Tuesday, a feat that would make Sunday’s showdown all the more mouthwatering with reigning champions and bitter rivals Liverpool.
“Yes, I have been fighting for the title in a couple of seasons when Sir Alex was here. Now we are there again and it’s taken us a lot of time to get there, to be honest and we cannot miss this chance,” De Gea told United’s official website.
“We have to be very, very focused on every game and try to win all of them. Hopefully, if we are good physically and mentally then we can be there and we can fight for sure for the Premier League.”
“It’s true there is a lot [of games] to play yet, but of course it’s a chance to be there, to be top of the league.”
“It’s a good challenge for us. We will play against a difficult team in Burnley, away from home, but if we want to win the league then we have to win these type of matches.”
“I’m saying the same thing, but all we can do is focus on each match, take it game-by-game and be 100 percent focused.”
