Man Utd legend Cole: Moyes must spend £200 MILLION

Manchester United legend Andy Cole feels David Moyes must spend over £200 MILLION to revive his flagging squad.

United under Moyes have already shelled out ?37.1m for Juan Mata from Chelsea and?27.5m to Everton for Marouane Fellaini.

Cole told the Daily Star Sunday: "When you have a situation where Manchester City are prepared to spend FIFTY MILLION POUNDS on two centre-halves - then you have to consider the possibility that they may go out and spend ?200m this summer. Chelsea, very easily, could spend another ?100m.

"Bear in mind, United have just forked out ?37million on an attack-minded midfielder and need more players. So in order to catch up, they are going to have to go big, match City's spending and even if they do, you still don't know if they will win next season's title.

"It is hard to accept but the simple fact of the matter is that there are better teams than Manchester United right now and that's why they are so low in the table."
