Ferguson’s side were beaten 1-0 by neighbours City on Monday evening and the 19-time English champions are now facing an uphill battle to defend their Premier League title with just two games remaining.

Manchester City’s heavy investment in the playing squad has appeared to pay dividends and now Ferguson believes Manchester United must do similar in order to stay ahead of their local rivals.
The newspaper claims that Ferguson is targeting four major players for potential acquisition in the summer which include Barcelona defender Gerard Pique, Inter Milan’s Welsey Sneijder, Tottenham’s Luka Modric and Lille’s Eden Hazard.
Pique, who left Manchester United in 2008 to join the Catalan giants, could prove the most difficult player to lure after a successful stint at Barcelona – although the Spanish international may be upset with the departure of coach Pep Guardiola.
