Manchester United captain Patrice Evra believes they will be ready next season to reclaim the Premier League crown should they relinquish it to bitter local rivals Manchester City.
The fate of this season’s title lies firmly in City’s hands who know a win over Queens Park Rangers at home next Sunday will be enough given their far superior goal difference over United.
Evra says that some people think the ‘empire’ will begin to crumble if they cannot beat City to the title but he feels the club can return to the champions list immediately.
"I know that if we don't win the league then a lot of people will say this is the end of the empire and ask how we will survive,” he said.
"But there is a lot of talent at this club. We've had to deal with a lot through injuries and losing experienced players last summer and it's never easy to find a solution immediately."
