Manchester United boss David Moyes is to be handed a £100m fund shower by the club's owners to avert a nightmare scenario of the Red Devils finishing outside the top four and failing to qualify for 2014/15 Champions League.
Moyes will be given the funds ahead of the January transfer window. Targetsd within his radar include Everton's Leighton Baines and Athletic Bilbao midfielder Ander Herrera.

The Glazer family, which owns Manchester United, do not share the view of some excitable United fans who are already asking if Moyes was the right man to succeed Alex Ferguson, with the club languishing in the bottom half of the table after six games.
"The Glazers' willingness to back the Scot in January reflects an understanding that the first transfer window for Moyes... was always going to be difficult," explains The Guardian. "Beyond this, the owners recognise that the Premier League has become far more competitive this season."

According to the Daily Telegraph, Manchester United's owners "remain comfortable with the club's immediate prospects and the ability of Moyes and his players to overcome their dismal start to the season, but there is also an acceptance at Old Trafford that the squad left behind by Sir Alex Ferguson is badly in need of new blood".

"United's shortcomings in midfield have been well documented and several players who provided a bedrock of success for Ferguson are well into their thirties," it adds, suggesting that Rio Ferdinand could be the first casualty of the new regime.

The challenge for Moyes will now be to identify and secure his transfer targets.
