Former Celta Vigo star Alexander Mostovoi insists they're capable of upsetting Europa League opponents Manchester United.

Celta host the first-leg of the big semifinal tonight.

Mostovoi told Faro de Vigo: "I think we have a lot of options, even though in the last matches of Liga, Celta has not been good because they were thinking about the match against Manchester.

"Celta wants to do something great and I expect a lot from them because Manchester is not the team it was a few years ago, it's a team that does not lose much but does not win much either.

"If Celta comes out fearlessly to attack, to score and try to win, it has many options to qualify for the final."

The Russian added: "The budget is not everything, there are players who are not worth the money paid for them, I cannot imagine that a player like (Paul) Pogba cost more than a hundred million."
