Juan Mata confident of Manchester United improvement

Manchester United midfielder Juan Mata is confident that the club will climb back into the top four of the Premier League in the near future.

The Red Devils earned a valuable point against Chelsea as Robin van Persie struck in stoppage time to save them from defeat at Old Trafford.

Mata told the club's official website: "I'm sure that we will get better and better and we will climb to the main spots, where United deserves to be. My aim is to work day after day in order to help the team get to its goals.

"Another big game awaits us the next weekend, this time against our Manchester rivals."

Louis van Gaal's men are eighth in the Premier League going into their clash against Manchester City this weekend.
