Dimitar Berbatov believes his former club Manchester United can finish in the top four this season and doesn't believe the title race is a foregone conclusion.
Manchester City have left Chelsea and Liverpool, let alone United, trailing behind after opening up an eight-point gap at the top.
But the former striker has noted the improvement in United's fortunes since the sacking of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, with interim coach Ralf Rangnick unbeaten in five matches since he came in.
