Ex Manchester United captain Gary Neville is pushing for the owners to sell the club, criticizing the owners after the Red Devils were humiliated by losing 4-0 to Brentford on Saturday. “You can’t blame the individual player or the manager, you’ve got to look at above,” Neville affirmed on Sky Sports.

“You have to look to the very top now and this week, honestly, they are going to get peppered, those players, the coach, the sporting department, the new CEO, they’re all going to get peppered. But there’s a family over there in America who are just literally letting their employees take all the hits for them, and that is unforgivable.”

“He’s got to get over to Manchester and he’s got to start to divert the issues away from the club and tell everybody what the hell his plan is with the football club. What is he doing?”
