Sir Alex Ferguson lists Premier League title as 'top priority'

Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson has insisted that his team will only have eyes for the Premier League title this season.

The Red Devils lost their hold on the sought-after trophy in the last campaign following a last-gasp strike from Sergio Aguero on the final day of the season, which resulted in the title heading to Manchester City.

"It would be special," Ferguson told the club's official website. "If you look back over different periods, you see we recover. Recovery is so important and the same applies this season. There's not any difference.

"It will be special, but not more special than in previous years. We want to recover the title. That's our priority number one - to win the title back."

Meanwhile, the Scotsman confirmed that Nemanja Vidic and Chris Smalling will be fit to start the season.
