Sir Alex Ferguson has said he is only focused on his own side as the Premier League title race draws to a close.

After losing the leadership to Liverpool on Saturday night, Manchester United seem to have now made the decisive move thanks to their 2-0 derby win over local rivals City at Old Trafford.

With a three-point lead and a game in hand, it seems unlikely the Red Devils will not collect a win and draw to clinch a record-equalling 18th league championship.

Ferguson has not given any signs of being a man under pressure and he confirmed the last few weeks have only provided him with extra focus for what would personally be an 11th title.

"Liverpool played first this weekend, as they have done a lot of times. But what does it matter?" said Ferguson.

"All we need to worry about is doing our own job."
