Roy Keane and Gary Neville disagree on Manchester United title chances after Leeds win

Former Manchester United pair Gary Neville and Roy Keane have disagreed on whether the Reds are in a title race this season - with the latter staking his claim for a top-flight trophy.

United very briefly leapfrogged Manchester City into second place following Sunday's 2-0 win at Leeds, late goals from Marcus Rashford and Alejandro Garnacho enough to hand Erik ten Hag's side a battling three points. City swiftly counter-punched with a commanding 3-1 win at home to Aston Villa, reaffirming their two-point advantage.

But with United having already played both City and Arsenal twice, while that same pair meet for the first time this season on Wednesday, points are there to be dropped for both Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta. But despite the current table handing United an outside chance, former Reds captain Neville believes this is not their season to win it.
