Vidic warns City that the title is far from over as United keep chase

Nemanja Vidic has warned Manchester City that their champagne football will stop flowing as the current Premier League champions turned a blind eye to their title rivals.

Manchester United’s centre-half and his team-mates stood firm as Javier Hernandez’s typically-predatory first-half strike capped a workmanlike and effective showing in south Wales against Swansea .

This was in contrast to another three-goal haul for Roberto Mancini’s men at the Etihad Stadium but from men of such experience as the Serbian defender and his colleague Wayne Rooney, there was certainly no panic.

'We will think about what they are going to do,' said the defender, 'but only if they are five points ahead of us with six games to go.

'You can see what I mean from last year. In the first seven or eight games Chelsea played unbelievably.

'But there was also a time when everything is not going well. It’s a ten-month season and you can’t always play great football.

'There will be good days and bad days but you have to play as a team.

'For that reason, we aren’t thinking about them. We still have to play them and they still have to play the top four or five others as well.

'So, we aren’t thinking about them, because that’s not the way we are going to win the league.'
