Manchester City star Yaya Toure has dismissed Manchester United's chances of defending their Premier League title as they are really struggling under new manager David Moyes according to him.
According to the Mirror, the Ivory Coast midfielder also singled out Liverpool as the main threat to the Blues this season.

Toure said that United would find it hard to defend the title since they have a new manager and are really struggling, adding that Liverpool is a big threat at the moment because they have a strong squad and their strikers, Luis Suarez and Daniel Sturridge, are scoring goals at will.
