Marcos Rojo believes that Manchester United are still in the hunt for the Premier League title but says the minimum is to qualify for the Champions League.
Following Sunday’s 1-0 defeat to Southampton at Old Trafford, Louis van Gaal’s side sat fourth behind their opponents in the Premier League table, with many doubting they could push both Chelsea and Man City for the title.
However, the Argentine centre-back believes he and his team-mates still have what it takes to do so, although he said that qualifying for the Champions League was the team’s main goal.
“As for expectations from now to the end of the season, well, to try to give my absolute best in every game until the end and hope that we pick up some good results along the way so we can be in with a shout in the shake-up for the title,” Rojo told Inside United.
“My minimum objective this year is to qualify for next year’s Champions League.
“It would be great to pick up a European trophy with this club. That and a league title is what I really want to win.”
