Garry Neville criticized the Manchester United midfield for destroying the team

Club legend Garry Neville criticized the midfield for ruining the team's strategy, then he also mentioned that Ruben Amorim's strategy was crazy in the defeat against Tottenham.

In the recent match against Tottenham, James Maddison's only goal in the 13th minute won all 3 points against Manchester United. The away team tried to control the ball in the second half and had some notable situations, but in the end Ange Postecoglou's team won.

Manchester United had turmoil in the squad when a series of key players were injured. Kobbie Mainoo, Toby Collyer, Christian Eriksen and Manuel Ugarte are all absent, the latest being Amad Diallo who is absent in the same way. That means Casemiro returns and Bruno Fernandes has to drop deeper in midfield.

Garry Neville criticized the tactics of his old team, especially the patchy midfield pair Casemiro and Bruno Fernandes.

“The distance is a complete failure. Look where Casemiro and Bruno are on the field. They barely have the right distance between each other, they are divided, it's crazy. Another example is the U9 tournament, they do even better than what the old Manchester United guys are doing.".

Currently, Manchester United is ranked 15th on the rankings, the team is almost losing cohesion after the key midfielders were injured. Ruben Amorim asked Joshua Zirkzee to play in the position Bruno Fernandes usually does, which helped him put in a much more impressive performance.
