the former Manchester United the defender Gary Neville The latter reiterated the need for a “cultural overhaul” at the club Reuben AmorimHis side suffered another humbling defeat at the weekend.

The result soured the mood around Old Trafford after the previous derby win, and meant that Amorim had just two wins in the fixture. Premier League Since taking office in November.
“I think it’s a huge positive that Amorim is looking at what he’s got,” Neville said.
“In the past, there have been times when you might think you’ve got a good team of players, because of good results and progress in the league.
“He has to change that. He rotated the team and tried everyone and I don’t think he looked and thought, ‘Yeah, I want you on the bus’.
“I don’t know how it happened – they’re better than they look, let’s be clear. But it’s a pattern,” he added.
Still, Neville believes it’s good that the Portuguese “can see these players in the cold light of day”.
Manchester United fans have seen what he has seen for 10 years, there needs to be a cultural change.
“It’s been a really turbulent time, there’s not much to like about the level of performance or the way they played. They are all trying their best, this is not a personal attack, but they are not good enough to play for Manchester United, because this club aims to be at the top.
“The same as Arsenal, Liverpool, Manchester City, Chelsea – these clubs aim to be at the top, but you have to get there.
“It’s pretty clear from these players, they’re not good enough,” he added.
