All eyes on Man united

Amid all the furore over the Republic of Ireland's World Cup exit, the Premier League has an action-packed evening lined-up on Saturday. All the big guns, Chelsea, Manchester United, Liverpool and Arsenal play important games. Sir Alex Ferguson is adamant United can claw back Chelsea's five-point advantage and complete an unprecedented Premier League four-timer. United face a tough test against Everton today but the one thing in Ferguson's favour is this week's matches represent the end of the international season apart from one midweek match at the beginning of March. According to Ferguson, that continuity in the Premier League will benefit the Old Trafford outfit.
