Former Republic of Ireland captain Andy Townsend thinks Manchester United should be considered real Premier League contenders.
United sit joint-top of the table with their rivals Man City with 13 games from their first five games of the new campaign.
Townsend thinks Jose Mourinho’s have everything to mount a serious title challenge.
“City have an amazing squad … but I think over course and distance I think Jose’s teams have always been ultra competitive … I do feel United will be very very close.”
