Gary Neville critical of Manchester United defender Phil Jones

Gary Neville critical of Phil Jones defending

Club legend Gary Neville has criticised the defending of Phil Jones during Manchester United's 3-3 draw with Sheffield United.

The Red Devils put together a stunning comeback to lead during the closing stages, only for Oliver McBurnie to net a controversial equaliser for the Blades.

However, while on commentary for Sky Sports, Neville slammed the efforts of Jones, who lost out to Lys Mousset on the byline before John Fleck put the home side ahead at Bramall Lane.

Neville said: "It's channel ball, the easiest ball to deal with for a centre-back and he doesn't deal with it. He has a look over his shoulder and in that moment he loses it."

With United having been outplayed during the opening 45 minutes, Jones was substituted at half time.
