<\/p>\nManchester United<\/a> defender John O\u2019Shea<\/a> is calling for concentration from his teammates ahead of this weekend\u2019s clash with Everton<\/a>, as they look to avoid throwing another game away against the Merseyside outfit.<\/span><\/p>\nThe season\u2019s first match between these two saw United throw away a 3-1 lead at Goodison Park, as late goals from Tim Cahill and Mikel Arteta secured a point for David Moyes\u2019 side.<\/span><\/p>\nWith the Red Devils closing in on a record 19th league title, any mistakes could be costly in Sir Alex Ferguson\u2019s mission in overtaking Liverpool once and for all in the number of top-flight championships.<\/span><\/p>\nA win at Old Trafford on Saturday afternoon would see United preserve their six-point lead at the perch of the table over second placed Chelsea and although he can\u2019t guarantee getting a result out of Everton, O\u2019Shea is adamant that there will be no slip-ups this time.<\/span><\/p>\nHe said: “If we are 3-1 up with a couple of minutes to go, I don’t think the same situation would occur. My clear memory of that game is that we should have been out of sight.<\/span><\/p>\n“We created so many chances but were sloppy in not finishing the game off. In the end, we got punished.”<\/span><\/p>\nSir Alex\u2019s side could be set to be the first team to claim the Premier League title with a final tally of less than 80 points since the Scotsman\u2019s treble winning outfit back in 1998-99.<\/span><\/p>\nO\u2019Shea says the team are surprised to be in such a position, but believes the consistent results have rewarded them with such a privileged situation and claims it is the reason why no other side have managed to replicate such domination this season.<\/span><\/p>\n“You could say we are surprised at our position given the results early on,” said the Irishman.<\/span><\/p>\n“But we weren’t losing games. We were going to tough places and coming away from matches really disappointed that we had not won quite comfortably.<\/span><\/p>\n“There wasn’t much tweaking needed to turn those draws into wins and our home form has been such a key factor for where we are in the league now.”<\/span><\/p>\n<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" By Sam Bisby 22 Apr 2011 16:19:00 John O’Shea (Getty Images) Related Links Teams Players Manchester United defender John O\u2019Shea is calling for concentration from his teammates ahead of this weekend\u2019s clash with Everton , as they look to avoid throwing another game away against the Merseyside outfit. <\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":0,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[1],"tags":[],"class_list":{"0":"post-389491","1":"post","2":"type-post","3":"status-publish","4":"format-standard","6":"category-business"},"yoast_head":"\n
