Bojan can become a Stoke legend Everton let themselves down with their set-pieces against Manchester City Sheikh Mansour deserves praise for building City's £200m Football Academy When I wrote in this column recently that Manchester United are on the brink of something very special under Louis van Gaal, I didn't expect it to happen this season. But right now they look like they're the only team capable of catching the top two and that means they are in the title race. Not many would have thought that possible after the 5-3 defeat at Leicester. But as I said after that game, United were brilliant going forward, and crumbled after a shocking refereeing decision gave Leicester a way back into the game.
