Gary Neville described Manchester United's players as "red mannequins" in the first-half against Chelsea. The Blues dominated the early proceedings at Old Trafford and Neville did not like what he saw from his former club.
United have not been in great form recently, it's fair to say, with Ralf Rangnick's men losing five out of their last eight matches. However, Erik ten Hag was confirmed to be the club's new permanent manager recently and there was some belief that it could have a positive impact on the out-of-sorts team.
In the very opening exchanges against Chelsea, the visitors were dominating possession in Manchester. Thomas Tuchel's team, who were set up in their usual 3-4-3 formation, were slick with their passing and knocking the ball around United at will.
