Gary Neville has blasted Manchester United as ‘the worst pound-for-pound football club in the country’ following their woeful start against Newcastle.
United went into the game in 14th place in the Premier League and they made a woeful start at Old Trafford as Alexander Isak put Newcastle ahead after just four minutes.
There was further misery to come as Joelinton put the visitors 2-0 up in the 19th minute.
Speaking on Sky Sports, Neville said: ‘You are watching the worst pound-for-pound football club in the country. They are that bad.’
United boss Ruben Amorim reacted by substituting forward Joshua Zirkzee after just 33 minutes, with Kobbie Mainoo replacing him.
