Manchester United new boss José Mouriho spoke before the friendly derby against Manchester City that the Red Devils will play tomorrow in Bejing.
The Portuguese coach set the targets for the next season:
"I want to be champion," Mourinho said in The Sun on Sunday.
"To say before the season starts that the top four is the target? The top four is not the target. We want to play to be champions.
"If during the season we realise the points difference doesn't allow us to fight for the title, we are going to establish a new title, and when you can't be champion the next target is to finish top four.
"But day one, I don't want to hide behind a bad season or no Champions League football to say we want to finish top four."
