Sir Alex Ferguson always spoke of this time of year being vital. The run-in, the final few fixtures, everything on the line.

Manchester United might not be challenging for a Premier League title as they were so often under the great man, but they have plenty to play for heading into the final weeks.

That will bring Champions League football back to Old Trafford and benefit the club on and off the pitch ahead of a crucial summer.
