United star backs his team for success
Manchester United star Zlatan Ibrahimovic has backed the club for big things this season.
The striker believes that the team can win 3 trophies, and finish in the top 4, while most of their rivals will win nothing.
They currently sit 6th in the table, but it is incredible tight from 2nd-6th.
“We just need to keep going,” Ibrahimovic told reporters after the win over Watford.
“We want to go through the Europa League and we have a good game at home against St Etienne.
“From five trophies this season, we have won one [the Community Shield] and we are still in four.
“I think from the four teams in front, only one will become champions.
“The rest will not get a trophy, but we have one and we can get our second one [the EFL Cup], and we are still in the Europa League and FA Cup, so if we don’t become champions in the Premier League, at least we can try and win two or three trophies.”
Ibrahimovic acknowledged the Premier League is out of their hands at present, but insists his team-mates are ready to capitalise on any slip-ups.
“We know where we are and that we have been stuck in the same position for many months,” he said.
“We had it [fifth spot] for 20 minutes perhaps and we are back in the same position now, but we know what we need to do. We need to keep winning to climb in the table and hope the others lose points and we can go past them.”
