Gary Neville slams 'disgusting' Manchester United in Tottenham thrashing
Man Utd were easily beaten by Tottenham Hotspur in the Premier League on Sunday afternoon.
Gary Neville slammed Manchester United for the 'disgusting' manner of their performance in the 3-0 defeat to Tottenham on Sunday afternoon.
United were comfortable beaten at Old Trafford as goals from Brennan Johnson, Dejan Kulusevski and Dominic Solanke sealed a thoroughly deserved victory for the away side.
The task was made even tougher for Erik ten Hag's side when captain Bruno Fernandes was shown a straight red card before half-time, but it would be wrong to cite the incident as a deciding factor in what was a pathetic team performance.
The manner of the defeat ramped up the pressure on manager Ten Hag ahead of a week in which they face both FC Porto and Aston Villa away from home, with Neville under no illusion just how bad things are right now.
The pressure is going to get ramped up this week – it is going to be brutal. It has been a bad day for Ten Hag, really bad," he told Sky Sports. "It's one of the worst performances I have seen under Ten Hag - and that is saying something. It is really bad.
"Brilliant for Tottenham, you have to say that, they were outstanding. The Man Utd fans boo the ref but not even half the story.
"The big story was that first half – it was not from nowhere – but they have chosen to put in their very worst performance. It was a disgusting performance in effort and quality and a lot of questions to answer from that group in the next week."
