Swansea City boss Garry Monk rates Manchester United title challengers.

Monk believes Louis van Gaal has the squad to challenge for the title.

"They can win it with the squad they've got after the amount of money they've spent," said the Swansea boss.

"With the quality they have, they should be competing for the title.

"You can see that they are going to be right up there contending for it and I think that's probably the minimum standard for Manchester United.

"They had a transition period last season with the new manager coming in. They've seen his way of working and this season they look a stronger outfit."
