"Manchester United" manager Jose Mourinho believes that "Manchester City" are not their direct competitors for a place in the top four of the Premier League. Mourinho is convinced that for the fourth place, which could be a ticket to the Champions League, teams like "Arsenal", "Liverpool" and "Man United" will be competing.
After a goalless draw in the Manchester derby, "Man United" is in fifth place with 64 points, "Man City" is fourth with 65, and "Liverpool" is in third place with 66, but has played one more game than the Manchester clubs. In sixth place, the "Arsenal" team has 60 points, but has played one game less than "Man United" and "Man City" and two games less than the "Liverpool" team.
"I believe that "Man City" will definitely finish among the top four. Looking at the remaining games they have, I believe they will definitely be there," said "Man United" manager Mourinho. "In my opinion, the battle will be between our "Arsenal" and "Liverpool". We will definitely try, but the reality is that we have the Europa League semi-finals ahead of us and many players who cannot help us. We will play with what we have, but we will fight until the end, until it is mathematically impossible," Mourinho added.
On Sunday, the "Red Devils" will host the "Swansea" team at home before traveling to Spain for the first leg of the semi-finals against the "Celta Vigo" team.
