Gary Neville identifies tactical change Manchester United must make in FA Cup final vs Man City

Former captain Gary Neville does not believe Manchester United manager Erik ten Hag can deploy his preferred midfield trio in Saturday's FA Cup final against Manchester City at Wembley.

Following last season's woes, both collectively and in the engine room, United bolstered their midfield options in last summer's transfer window, bringing in Christian Eriksen on a free transfer and Casemiro from Real Madrid in a big-money deal. The duo have since excelled in their first season at Old Trafford, forming an excellent relationship with Bruno Fernandes.

The trio, both individually and as a collective force, have played a key role in United's resurrection under Ten Hag this term, not least Casemiro. He has added a world-class presence to that area of the team, offering defensive nous and an ability to dictate proceedings.
