Eric Cantona: Manchester United can still win the Premier League title

Eric Cantona is confident Manchester United can still challenge for the Premier League title this season.

Seven games into the season United, with only one win in their last four league games, are sixth and five points behind leaders Manchester City but Cantona believes his former club have the tools to turn things around.

"It's just the beginning," Cantona is reported to have told Portuguese newspaper Publico. "Manchester can still be champions. Jose Mourinho is a successful manager at a successful club which this year has successful players.

"But this is an extremely difficult championship, full of great teams and great managers, like Pep Guardiola."
