Those are the thoughts of former Manchester United star turned pundit Phil Neville.
Manchester United enjoyed a 3-0 victory away to Leicester yesterday.
Although their title chances are dead in the water, Jose Mourinho’s men still have a chance of finishing in the top four.
Meanwhile, Chelsea continued their seemingly inexorable run towards the Premier League with a 3-1 victory over Arsenal on Saturday at Stamford Bridge.

Phil Neville thinks Manchester United have a very strong squad
They have the best squad equipped to challenge Chelsea in terms of strength in depth
“They’re out of the title race, aiming for top four but of all of the teams chasing Chelsea, United on paper, have the best squad," Neville told BBC's Match of the Day.
“They have the best squad equipped to challenge Chelsea in terms of strength in depth.
“What has killed them is the seven draws. One defeat in 20 and seven draws isn’t good enough.
“They’ve drawn too many games and missed too many chances.”
United face Watford next on Saturday (3pm).
