Man City our biggest rivals - Sir Alex Ferguson

Sir Alex Ferguson thinks Manchester City are now Manchester United's biggest rivals, ahead of their Premier League derby on Monday, saying the clash has "superseded" the Liverpool fixture in terms of its importance to the club.

United's draw with Everton last Sunday allowed City to move within three points of the top spot, but Ferguson is still confident his team remain favourites for the title, saying form "doesn't matter" come Monday and his side are in the "better position".
