Vidic warns Man Utd: Treble could be in shreds by Monday

Manchester United captain Nemanja Vidic knows their season could be left in tatters by the end of the week. Talk of the Treble has started to build with a healthy lead in the Premier League, an FA Cup quarter-final coming up against troubled Chelsea and tonight's last-16 Champions League game against Real Madrid.

Vidic said: "If you look at where we are then, yes, we are still in all three competitions.

"But the end of the season will show where we are and how good we are as a club. At the moment we are in a good position. We have a good squad and a good team.

"We play good football and score many important goals to show our class and our mentality.

"It is important to be focused because, in two or three games, you can screw-up your whole year. We have to be focused and sharp - sharp in the mind - and not think about whether we might get AC Milan or Barcelona in the next round of the Champions League.

"We just have to think about the next game.

"This week we have Real Madrid and Chelsea in the Champions League and FA Cup, so this is what I am saying.

"It looks a great season now, but it will only be a great season when it is finished and we have the trophies."

 Is Vidic right to be nervous? Could it all end in tears for United by Monday? Give us your shout below...
