Gary Neville Criticizes Manchester United Loss

Gary Neville has criticized Manchester United for their poor performance following a 3-2 defeat to Nottingham Forest, marking their second consecutive loss under new manager Ruben Amorim. He highlighted that constant changes in the lineup send a message of distrust to the players, which hampers team consistency and shape on the field. Neville expressed concern over the team's lack of hard work, pointing out that they rank 16th in running stats while sitting 13th in the league. He urged Amorim to establish a more stable starting XI, similar to Chelsea's Enzo Maresca, to build patterns and coherence within the team. The defeat has left United struggling with six losses in 15 league games, making their aspirations for a top-four finish increasingly difficult. Neville's remarks underline the urgent need for improvement as the season progresses.
