Man Utd legend Cole: FA Cup a great competition

Manchester United legend Andy Cole can't understand managers dismissing the importance of the FA Cup.

Cole lifted the trophy twice during his United days and he is an ardent supporter of the famous old tournament.

"It's a great competition to be in and a great competition to win," he said. "When you see these games, you've got to be very happy.

"I love the FA Cup. I was fortunate to win it a couple of times and should have won a couple more, to be brutally honest. But I can't be greedy. If you look at the competition now, if we can beat Shrewsbury, I mean, as people say, you can half smell the hot dogs."
