Gary Neville has slammed Manchester United chiefs for not backing new manager Erik ten Hag as his side were beaten 2-0 at home in their first game of the new Premier League season.

The former Manchester United player, turned television pundit, refused to blame the new manager and his latest recruits, Lisandro Martinez and Christian Eriksen, but instead pointed the finger at those in charge of transfer dealings at the club. 

On a day when club owner Avram Glazer was in attendance to watch the start of what he hopes is a new era of success under the Dutch boss, Neville showcased his disappointment in the state of the squad that Ten Hag has been handed at Old Trafford.
