Manchester United still is and will always remain a force despite these setbacks.

Do I need a comma after is here? I personally don't think so but would like to be sure.

  • Never mind a comma, you need a new manager.

  • But I drove past the Old Trafford stadium two days ago, and it looks a sad and sorry place, anything but 'The Theatre of Dreams'.

Personally, I would use:

Manchester United is still, and will always remain, a strong force despite these setbacks.

Of course, the phrase between the commas can be removed while retaining the original intent of the sentence; however, in this case, the commas tend to also emphasize the idea of 'will always remain.'
