EPL: Gary Neville slams Man Utd players after Everton defeat
Ruben Amorim
Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has stated that the current squad were complacent in their 1-0 loss to Everton on Monday night.
The Red Devils fell short against the visitors, who were down to ten men after Idrissa Gana Gueye was sent off in the first 15 minutes.
Instead, it was the Toffees who scored the decisive goal in the first half, through Kiernan Dewsbury-Hall.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Neville hit out at Ruben Amorim’s men for a lack of fight and intensity.
He said: “It’s complacency, and complacency will kill you. The minute that you think as a football player that you just have to turn up on that pitch and you’re Manchester United and you can play or any football club, you’re done.
“It just smelt of complacency. They weren’t at it from the beginning. That is a bad one for United.
“You can’t go from the fight that they showed in certain games to that. It just erodes confidence, it erodes trust. We’re trying to build a trust in a manager, we’re trying to build a trust in a team.”
