Published on: 03 March 2018

Manchester United midfielder Nemanja Matic insists they're capable of still catching Premier League leaders Manchester City.

United currently sit 16 points behind Premier League leaders Manchester City, but Matic insists his side will fight until it's mathematically impossible to catch their local rivals.

"I am always positive," he said. "Obviously the gap between us and City is big, but we will fight until the end."

On working with manager Jose Mourinho, Matic told Press Association Sport: "He always wants to win.

"Of course, him as a coach, if you play good he always thinks that you can play better. This is good. He always asks you to do more.

"I am happy that we work with him and he's a coach who won many, many trophies in his career and for sure we can learn a lot of things form him.

"He won many things. The coach is good if he won the trophies. He won in every country he has been, he has won a lot and that's why they call him special."
