Manchester United defender Patrice Evra has said that he 'still believes' that the club can win the Premier League title this season.

The Red Devils, who were at one point eight-points clear at the top of the league, were pulled back after dropping points at Wigan and at home to Everton. However, the Frenchman insists that his side must not give up hope.

"It hurts me a lot to think we were eight points clear," he told United Review.

"However, we can't hide from that. I still believe we can win this title. There have been a lot of strange results this season so I still hold out hope.

"In order to maintain that hope we have to give ourselves the chance to believe. And that means winning two games, starting with Swansea."

United trail league leaders Manchester City on goal difference alone.
