Former Manchester United captain and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville was critical of the poor show from Manchester United defenders during their 5-3 loss against Leicester City on Sunday.
Despite being 3-1 down with only 30 minutes to go, a newly promoted side that is Leicester City made a stellar comeback as they defeated Manchester United at the King Power Stadium following a shocking second-half show from Louis van Gaal's men.
"Going forward they're a lot better than they have been in the last 12-18 months and that's a positive," Neville said. "But in the first half, every ball that got played forward from distance a Leicester player won it, whether it was the first ball or the second ball. In the second half, a decision goes against them but make no mistake about it they're soft-centred.
"There's no doubt Manchester United are soft-centred. They're not tough enough. You saw out there today [in the Manchester City-Chelsea tie] that every time a ball went up to Diego Costa he was getting battered by [Eliaquim] Mangala and it was the same at the other end with John Terry and Gary Cahill. I thought the midfield three for United and the back four got bullied.”
