Man united still need four or five new players to catch premier league leaders Liverpool, according to former Red Devils striker Andy Cole.
Manchester united were fifth in the English top flight 37 points behind Liverpool when the 2019&2020 season was suspended due to coronavirus.
Man united were beginning to show signs of improvement under Solskjaer but man united former player Cole says his former club still need to sign several players to close the gap on the likes of Liverpool and man city.
He said It a million dollar question, whatever we buy to try and close the gap Liverpool and Man City are trying to buy as well to open the gap even further.
Its just like Formula one, once one team starts to close the gap it seems another team does something to find a little bit more.
Liverpool are going to win the league for the first time in 30 years, you turn around and think why has it taken this long, it’s because the gap continues to grow more and more.
It going to take 4, possibly 5 players, then with performances the gap starts to close and the confidence germinates.
Cole, who was part of the Manchester United team that won the three trophy's in 1998 to 99, said he think it’s about the winning mentality.
Winning mentality, training was fierce but the camaraderie was fantastic, it was unbelievable.
The premier league teams all had the same goal come the end of the season and that was to win. Once you have things like that it’s half the battle so we are going to get it.
Liverpool are the champions already There is nothing anyone can do about it....you guys should enter the T-market and recruit players
