Manchester United legend, Gary Neville has exposed the club’s major problem this season under their interim manager, Ralf Rangnick.
According to Neville, Man United’s problem so far this season is that they lack energy.
The former defender believes Rangnick needs to fix the defensive problems in his squad and make them tougher to play against.
Man United extended their unbeaten start to life under Ralf Rangnick to three games with a 1-0 win against Norwich City over the weekend.
“I have seen a manager that is just trying to embed his principles,” Neville told Sky Sports.
“If you had said to him before that first game against Crystal Palace last week: ‘You will have two Premier League wins, two clean sheets and get the opportunity to see all of your players in Europe in midweek’, he would have snapped your handoff.
“I think I have to say the one thing that Rangnick had to try and fix first was the defensive problems and make them tougher to play against. I don’t think they were tough to play against today.
“The biggest mystery of today, for me, was why Manchester United were so lacking in energy. I thought that they would have been a lot better than that, particularly when the players that were out on the pitch have had a free week to prepare for this match.
“It is a little bit of a mystery in terms of today’s game. We will know a little bit more on Tuesday night [against Brentford], as will Ralf Rangnick. He is still finding out about his players.”
Man United’s next match is against Brentford in a Premier League tie on Tuesday.
