EPL: They’re making mistakes – Neville names players who will push Man Utd into relegation

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has identified four defenders he believes could contribute to the club’s relegation from the Premier League this season.

Neville named Noussair Mazraoui, Leny Yoro, Ayden Heaven and Patrick Dorgu, who were the four defenders that finished Sunday’s match against Aston Villa.

The former United captain made the comments following the 4-4 draw at Old Trafford, which left Michael Carrick’s side in the relegation zone with eight points from ten matches.

Speaking on NBC Sports, Neville blamed the club’s defensive problems on a lack of investment in the backline during the transfer window.

He said: “The reason Manchester United have conceded four goals is that they have not invested in the defence in the transfer window.”

Neville also criticised the current defenders for repeatedly making costly errors, saying: “The current ones are making mistake after mistake after mistake.”
