Former Manchester United centre-back Mikael Silvestre has blasted Ralf Rangnick's side, claiming they don’t know how to defend.
The Frenchman was speaking after United’s 4-0 humbling at the hands of Liverpool, in which the visitors conceded twice within the opening 22 minutes. Silvestre, who won four Premier League titles and a Champions League at Old Trafford, said that fans wouldn't have been surprised by the result.
He claimed that the deficit could have been even more if Liverpool hadn’t eased off for 20 minutes of the second half, during which time United managed to muster their only shot on target. Speaking to Sky Sports, the former France international said United’s defensive issues were laid bare in their previous match.
