Neville: 'The title is in our hands'

Gary Neville claims the title is back in Manchester United's hands following Chelsea's slip-up at Hull at the weekend.
The Reds have still to face Chelsea at Old Trafford on Easter Saturday, April 3, and Neville sees that match as their chance to land a decisive blow in the title race.
"It's in our hands and it hasn't been that way for quite a while with us being four points behind," he said. "Now we have to play Chelsea again, the title is in our hands and that's where we like it to be.
"We'd like to get in front of them before that game. In the meantime, we just have to keep winning our own games."
Neville was quick to add that no-one at Old Trafford is getting carried away by United's red-hot form and says they are too experienced to make that elementary mistake.
"We played really well at Arsenal, but no-one came into the training ground afterwards saying we are going to win the league," said the full-back.
"At the moment, everyone is saying we're on top of the world and have a great chance of success. But our players and manager have been around the block, so we never get too down or too high.
"Even when we lose a game it doesn't take us away from our aims for the end of the season. It does give us confidence when we get a good win, but on the other hand we don't lose confidence when we have a defeat."
