EPL: ‘Worst I’ve Ever Seen’ – Neville Slams Man United Players After 1-1 Draw With Fulham

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has described the club’s performance during the opening 15 minutes of the second half against Fulham as the worst he has ever seen.

Manchester United drew 1-1 with Fulham in Sunday’s Premier League encounter at Craven Cottage after a goalless first half.

The Red Devils fell behind in the 63rd minute following an unfortunate sequence of events.

Matheus Cunha lost his duel with Calvin Bassey, who collected the loose ball and drove forward before forcing Manchester United goalkeeper Senne Lammens into a save.

The resulting deflection fell towards Lisandro Martinez, who inadvertently directed the ball into his own net.

Speaking on Sky Sports after the goal, Neville expressed his frustration with Manchester United’s performance.

“I’ve watched Man United since the age of five, and that’s the worst 15 minutes I’ve ever seen. Absolutely pathetic. I’ve never seen such a lack of effort. What must Carrick be thinking?

“I find the ambulatory behaviour profoundly troubling. Players should never engage in walking movements across a football pitch. It is highly irregular. It resembles a few minutes of the blue mannequins competing against the white mannequins, then the configuration reverses—an extraordinarily peculiar football contest.

“Neither team will achieve meaningful progress with this demonstrated lack of intensity. Simply observe them: They are walking!

“Were I Michael Carrick, I would harbour significant concerns regarding the message the players are communicating to him. Emerging from the half-time interval with this remarkable absence of urgency is deeply troubling.”
