Mata: Man Utd season hasn't been a failure

The Red Devils were unable to sustain a Premier League title challenge in 2017-18, but they have finished second and can still secure FA Cup glory

Juan Mata refuses to concede that Manchester United have “failed” in 2017-18 despite being unable to sustain a Premier League title challenge.

The Red Devils opened the season in positive fashion to suggest that they would be capable of competing for the top-flight crown.

Inconsistency soon set in, though, and those at Old Trafford have been forced to watch on from afar as arch-rivals Manchester City have secured domestic dominance in record-breaking style.
