Manchester United manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is not giving up yet on this season’s Premier League title as he stated that the Red Devils can still win the title.
United who host Burnley on Sunday afternoon are 11 points behind neighbours and rivals Manchester City, but Solskjaer believes stranger things have happened in football.
There are six games left in the Premier League for the Old Trafford outfit and a win at home will reduce the City’s lead to eight.
That was the margin at this stage of the season in 2012 when United held the advantage under Sir Alex Ferguson, only for Roberto Mancini’s City team to pip them on goal difference thanks to Sergio Aguero’s last kick of the season against QPR.
City also had the advantage of a better goal difference and a game against United to drag three of those eight points back.
Solskjaer saidv via The Man Utd Fans:
“Can we catch City? Stranger things have happened in football. Bigger leads have been given away.
"Of course, they have been very strong and it’s probably too much to hope for. But as long as we do our job that’s the main thing."

Meanwhile, Tottenham Hotspur manager Jose Mourinho has decried comments by his Manchester United counterpart after their 3-1 loss at home in the Premier League.
Mourinho seems unhappy with Ole Gunnar Solskjaer who said Heung-Min Son had conned the referee to disallow United’s opener in their entertaining game on Sunday, April 11.
Cavani thought he had opened the scoring in the encounter, but a build up to that strike had seen Son go down the turf, with VAR calling the attention of the referee.

The Reds failed to turn things around at Anfield on Wednesday night having started the game from behind - following their 3-1 first leg loss.
Liverpool will only blame themselves for the ouster after they missed a couple of begging chances during the encounter as Klopp appeared to have singled out Mohamed Salah for their misfortune.
