Tevez: We've Still Got The Edge

Manchester United's defeat last weekend in the derby has put them five points behind Arsenal in the race for the Premiership title. Nonetheless, the Red Devils still appear confident of clawing back the deficit and certainly aren't thinking of anything other than victory when two sides meet at Old Trafford today in the Cup. "This match is our first big final of the season," stressed Argentina striker Carlos Tevez, aware that Saturday's winner would receive a huge psychological advantage in the league battle. "A victory will be very important for our confidence and knocking out Arsenal would be very positive for the title race.

Gunners Under Pressure
Arsenal are a very good team," he admitted. "But we know we can put them under pressure and this game is a big chance for us. If we can win then it will show our authority and demonstrate that we can be champions. This match will be hard because Arsenal will come here with a lot of confidence but no one here is thinking about defeat."
