Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson believes his side are more than capable of launching a successful title challenge this season.
Speaking after his side's victory over Everton in the Premier League Ferguson revealed his target for the near future.
He told ESPN, "If we get to New Year within a point or two then there's a good chance we could finish the season with the title."
United's three-nil victory at Old Trafford closed the gap on leaders Chelsea back to five points and Ferguson was pleased with the manner of the victory.
"I was pleased it was a controlled performance and showed a lot of patience in the first half when we were trying to open them up, and fortunately we got the goals at the right times.
"The second goal put us in the comfort zone and from there I didn't think we could possibly lose it."
The champions are aiming to be the first team to claim four successive Premier League titles but will have to work hard to stay in touch with Chelsea, who maintained their five-point lead by thrashing Wolverhampton Wanderers.
