United maintain a lead over Manchester City and clinched the Premier League last Monday with a get over Aston Villa at Old Trafford. The Red Devils may defeat Chelsea's Premier League record of 95 points by winning their remaining four activities and the United manager assured the others of the Premier League they will perhaps not be easing up. "There is always a danger, when you yourself have won the league, of falling into the trap 'it's throughout and we can relax and enjoy ourselves'," said Ferguson. "But I do believe we have got a duty to other clubs who're chasing a Champions League place. "Also, the competition we have had with Arsenal and Chelsea over the years does provide an edge to these games anyway, so we hope we represent ourselves the proper way. I went along to the Arsenal and Everton sport and I thought it was one of the most readily useful games I've seen this year, so it will be difficult. "I am happy to be sat here having won the league. I'd take that any time. You expect it to be tough, with the opposition you have in teh Premier League, and it's tough, but we've gained it some games before the end of the period some years. Winners! The Premier League has been won by united with four games to extra Alex Livesey "But I do think your competition is worse now and I do think it's difficult, but we are pleased [to have won it therefore early]."

There's a continuity of management here, not only myself, but my staff, and I believe that positively helps. "We also have a nucleus of a long time has been spent by players who with the club. Getting aside Ryan Giggs and Paul Scholes, you have Rio Ferdinand, who's been here 11 years, and Nemanja Vidic and Patrice Evra, who've been here many of years now, therefore I think that helps in that you're not making wholesale changes every year. "If you are going to handle this team, you have to take there is a sacrifice you have to make in terms of one's dedication to it, and also there is a requirement you have to live up to, so you really have to get constantly. That is the onl yway you can satisfy the expectation. The continuity have been hailed by old guard: Fergie made available from Scholes and Giggs Laurence Griffiths "The hardest thing is always to maintain a level of achievement that keeps going year after year." Strategy will form a guard of honor for newly-crowned winners United, including their former striker Robin van Persie, on Sunday when the two sides satisfy at the Emirates Stadium, after Gunners' boss Arsene Wenger confirmed they will observe the pre-match project. "I do not really bother about that and I actually do not think Robin should bother about that, to be honest," said Ferguson. "There was a bit of booing when Arsenal performed at Old Trafford, and I think you had assume a percentage of the supporters to accomplish this. That is the modern era and modern society, to tell the truth. "But I'm glad Arsene's done that, because once they came to Old Trafford and won the league some years straight back, we did just that. And that's what great groups should do." Hear Daily Mirror correspondent John Corner speaking from Arsene Wenger's press conference.
