Former Manchester United captain Gary Neville believes the Reds have tried and failed to mimic some of Manchester City ’s key tactics in recent seasons.
Ralf Rangnick’s side came into their crucial home clash against Leicester City 22 points behind Pep Guardiola’s side and four points away from the Champions League places. While United have been trophyless since their Europa League and League Cup triumphs in 2017, City have won four Premier Leagues, four League Cups, and the FA Cup.
United’s current league position and City’s continued brilliance could also see them fall even further behind the reigning Premier League champions. And Neville believes the Reds need to abandon the current methods they have followed recently if they are to have any hope of making up ground on their fierce rivals.
