Following their 2-1 win against Chelsea on Sunday, United will overtake Liverpool’s record of 18 league championships — a record set by the Anfield team in 1990 – as long as they avoid defeat against Steve Kean’s side.
But United captain Nemanja Vidic will have to wait until the visit of Blackpool to Old Trafford on May 22 to lift the trophy after the League confirmed its intention to stand by its policy of holding the official presentation at the champions’ final home game of the campaign.
Sources at the Premier League have confirmed that the trophy will not be on standby at Ewood Park to cap United’s celebrations should they win the league less than half-an-hour before Manchester City take to the field in the FA Cup final.Ferguson will have to name winger Antonio Valencia, so impressive against Chelsea as United all but secured the championship, in at least one of his side’s remaining two games for the Ecuadorean to be certain of being awarded a league winner’s medal.
Valencia has made just nine appearances this season after missing six months following the horrific ankle injury he suffered in the Champions League group stage game with Rangers in October, meaning he is one short of the 10 required to be assured of a medal.
