Neville: Manchester United players will only complain to each other, and Cristiano Ronaldo did not greet the fans after the game

Live on 28 December In the 19th round of the Premier League, Manchester United drew 1-1 away to Newcastle. Manchester United star Gary Neville criticised the Red Devils' performance.

Gary Neville, who was a guest commentator for Sky Sports, said: "In terms of formation and tactical style, United played a mess in the second half, which was desperate. It's really worrying and I think Coach Lonnick would hate such a performance. ”

Gary Neville went on to say: "As a team, United have not done anything right, no player can say that they have done their job or even done their full potential. There were no positive aspects, no. The Manchester United players are just complaining to each other! They're a bunch of people who are used to complaining and will only raise their arms and complain about everything on the pitch! To be honest, their performance was shocking. United have sacked their last manager and Lonnick will not be sacked, he has only worked with the team for a few weeks. But to be honest, if they just play like that, United will still sack a lot of managers. ”

Gary Neville added: "Something is wrong there, I don't know what it is, but it's definitely complaining to each other, the players are attacking each other and they're not helping each other. The spirit of the dressing room is really important and I don't think they're all united at the moment. Maybe there's a leadership struggle going on, Maguire is Captain Manchester United, but he doesn't feel like captain. ”

Gary Neville also said of Cristiano Ronaldo: "We can talk about body language, as we said earlier in the season, when Ronaldo also left the game in silence after the game against Everton, and tonight he did it again. He did it at Watford – everyone knew the manager would be sacked, and he did it at Norwich. There's also B Fee's complaint that they are veteran players, which is devastating for young players when the two best players on the team look at their teammates with 'you guys aren't good enough'. ”

In this game, Cavani equalized after coming off the bench, and Gary Neville believes that Cavani should be given more opportunities to play. "I don't think Cavani is going to be as grumpy as Ronaldo or B Fee, I think he's going to step up and help the other young players on the pitch who need to play. I don't care how you perform, but you need to go and applaud the fans at the end of the game, especially when you're one of the best and greatest players in the world. That attitude me off for about two months, they were the best players on the team, but when they showed that expression and body language to young players, it was devastating. ”

Gary Neville also questioned the 4222 formation used by Lonnick: "I don't like this formation, it's hard to balance both offensively and defensively. United's full-backs in the last game against Norwich had to fight alone, and tonight I also felt sorry for Darot, who was sometimes exposed and had to work hard to do his job alone. And United's two centre-backs are underperforming, Maguire is going through a nightmare season and Varane has just returned. I don't know of any team in Europe that makes good use of this formation, which has a huge demand on full-backs. ”
