Mancini - 8 points and it's over
Roberto Mancini believes that if Manchester United win their two matches this week, then the title race is over.
United face Blackburn live on Monday Night Football, before facing Queens Park Rangers
on Sunday - both games live on Sky Sports.
And Mancini feels that maximum points for United, which would see them go eight points clear, would end their hopes of winning the title.
"If we go eight points behind then it is finished," said Mancini - who saw his side draw 3-3 at home to Sunderland on Saturday.
"It's clear we are disappointed. We have made some mistakes, me and the team.
"We have also been unlucky, like losing three or four key players at an important moment.
"But when you are a strong team you should be able to pass these difficult moments.
"Yet football can change in two or three games.
"I had an experience in Italy with Inter Milan when we were five points behind with five games to go yet we still went on to win the title."
