Manchester United have edged their way back into contention for a Champions League place in recent weeks, with manager Louis van Gaal declaring that a top-three finish is still realistic. Van Gaal has been buoyed by the public support in recent days of Alex Ferguson, who called on United fans to be patient as the current manager awaits his first trophy with the club after almost two full seasons in charge.

Having been six points adrift of fourth-placed Manchester City in mid-February, United are now just one point behind going into the weekend’s fixtures.Sunday’s home game against Everton offers the opportunity to keep the pressure on in the chase for fourth, but Van Gaal has set his sights higher than that. "We are still capable of being in the top three in the league," he said.
