Gary Neville has dismissed suggestions that Manchester United's lineup against Manchester City was wrong. United midfielders and strikers for the game were Rashford, Eriksen, Fernandes, McTominay, and Sancho. And all of them failed miserably to worry Guardiola's squad.

Neville believes that this was the right lineup for the game and that it was the disruption of the international break prior to the World Cup and the Queen passing that affected the Red Devils. He said “Midfield players and the forwards; Rashford, Eriksen, Fernandes, McTominay, they were all giving it away first-half unnecessarily”.
