But, winning a major trophy should not be taken lightly. "I think the league is a little bit too much, so you look at getting in the Champions League through either finishing in the top four or winning the Europa League. United can more than do that."United currently sit sixth in the Premier League table, four points adrift of Liverpool in fourth.</blockquote>
