Van der Sar Enjoying Chelsea Distance

Manchester United extended their lead at the top of the table on Saturday to 9 points, with a 2-1 win away to Fulham. Chelsea have a game in hand, but the United keeper says that having the points in the bag is the most important thing.

“These are games that decide if you are going to be champions or let Chelsea back in the game,” said Van der Sar. “We have got individual quality with the players we have and, if you perform as a team that extra quality comes around sooner or later in a game. A nine-point lead is nice. Chelsea have a game in hand but they have to win it. The more points you can get between each other is nice.”
