Gary Neville: 'Liverpool far better than Manchester United'

Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville has said that "Liverpool are streets ahead" of the Red Devils, who lost 3-1 at Anfield on Sunday afternoon.

The defeat to Liverpool has left sixth-placed United a huge 19 points off the top of the Premier League table, while they are also 11 points behind fourth-placed Chelsea.

Neville blasted his former team after the clash on Merseyside, claiming that United do not have a central midfielder who is capable of picking a pass in the final third.

"Liverpool are streets ahead. Streets. Not one of the United midfielders can pass a football. Not one of them," Neville told Sky Sports News.

"I find it staggering. United were awful. They were hanging in there for a bit but the only real team who were going to win the game was Liverpool. It's not good enough."

United have won just seven of their 17 Premier League matches during the 2018-19 campaign.
