Vi kommer tillbaka!
Många har redan nu börjat att räkna bort United från chansen att lyfta guldet till våren. Men Sir Alex menar på att den 5 pängsledning Chelsea nu har skaffat sig efter 12 omgångar inte är några som heslt garantier för att sluta som etta.
Förlusten senast mot Chelsea stör fortfarande Ferguson, då de var mycket som gick emot United i den matchen. Dock så poängterar Ferguson vikten utav sina spelares erfarenheter i dessa lägen, och att man inte ska räkna bort United från titel chanserna.
"Five points is not insurmountable, that has been shown time and time again in the Premier League,"
"You can come from behind and you can be in front and lose it, as we did in 1997. It is a challenge.
"But I always think if you get to New Years Day a point in front or behind, with our experience in big-game situations over the run-in, we have a great chance."
Ferguson menar även på att de är nu säsongen börjar på riktigt. Då de inte finns några landslagsuppehåll inplanerade förrens i Mars.
"Probably the league will start now," he added."You will get some sort of consistency and we won't be worrying about which players are coming back from international duty, where they have been and arranging flights for them to come back in time.
"We have got them now right through until March. We are delighted with that."
67 åringen som på lördag välkommnar Everton till Old Trafford, vet om, trots deras tunga skadelista, att de kommer bli en jämn match.
"Everton have had a tremendous run of injuries and David Moyes is facing much the same situation as myself at the moment," he declared.
"You can understand how difficult it is to win games when you don't have your best team out. Once they get their full squad back they will soon come up the table again.
"Even so they are still very powerful opponents. They are a determined side and we will need to perform."
