Watch: Gary Neville blames Manchester United board for the club's problems, claiming they 'cocked up' in the transfer market


Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville believes Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side are paying the cost for the board having "cocked it up" over recruitment.

Matty Longstaff's goal on his Premier League debut for Newcastle saw the Red Devils beaten 1-0.

United boss Solskjaer was left facing more questions following an 11th successive game without an away win which leaves his side in 12th place - just two points above the bottom three.

Neville, who was at St James' Park in his role as co-commentator and pundit, felt it was a tough performance to stomach - and one which had been a long time in the making.
