'Brutally honest' - Manchester United legend Andy Cole sends warning to fans about next season

Andy Cole thinks Manchester United are still 'a few years away' from challenging for the Premier League title. Erik ten Hag has enjoyed an impressive first season at Old Trafford, as he won the Carabao Cup in February, which put an end to the longest trophy drought at the club for over 40 years, and the team look set to secure a top-four finish.

With the business end of the campaign approaching, the FA Cup and Europa League also appear to be realistic avenues for more silverware and United have already surpassed last year's league points total with eight games remaining.

Ten Hag has made a strong impression and Cole believes this season has been 'really successful', but he also discussed what could happen in his second year in charge and he predicted the Reds will struggle to challenge for the title.
