De Gea : "United can still win it all"

Manchester United goalkeeper David de Gea believes his side can still catch leaders Manchester City and win the Barclays Premier League title.

The reigning champions currently trail their bitter neighbours by five points at the top of the standings and are still fresh from the humiliating 6-1 defeat by Roberto Mancini's men at Old Trafford last month.

But de Gea has no doubts the Red Devils can recover and win their 20th league title.

"United can still win it all. It's still not decided that City will finish first," the Spaniard was quoted as saying in The Daily Mirror.

The 21-year-old also revealed how he has developed as a player under Sir Alex Ferguson at Old Trafford.

He added: "What I have learned since the summer in England is more than most of my professional career in Spain," he said.

"It's another world in all of the concepts. I didn't play in the past weekend, but Ferguson told me it was just so I could rest. He's an incredible coach and without doubt the best in the world."

United will travel to Swansea City next on 19 November.
