Manchester United board blasted as ‘naive’ and accused of ‘losing control’ by Gary Neville over Jose Mourinho contract decision
Gary Neville criticised Manchester United’s board after the defeat to Liverpool on Sunday, accusing them of ‘naivety’ in handing Jose Mourinho a new contract.Mourinho, who was appointed United manager in 2016, was handed a long-term extension in January just 18 months into his spell in the Old Trafford dugout.Jose Mourinho shows his frustrations during the defeat at Anfield3

United went on to finish last season without any silverware and have endured a disastrous first half to 2018/19, with the 3-1 reverse at Anfield on Sunday leaving them 19 points off the leaders.According to Neville, the problems at the club stem from the very top, with the Red Devils legend claiming they have ‘lost control’.“The board are so naive, giving him [Mourinho] a new contract,” Neville told Sky Sports. “Manchester United need to reset. It’s not just the manager, it’s deeper than that.“They lost control of the football club when they gave him a contract extension 18 months in.“The minute he came back from pre-season he was at it and the club lost control. There is not that experience or knowledge in the football club above him to be able to manage or control him and handle him.“His agent was out last week, at press conferences they don’t know what he is going to say next, and they don’t know what to do with him.”Shaqiri turned the game in Liverpool’s favour after coming off the bench3

United face a huge task to even make the top four this season, with just seven wins from 17 games leaving them 11 points adrift of the Champions League qualification places.But Neville sees no value in getting rid of Mourinho just yet, adding:“The problem they will have now is he would cost an absolute fortune to lose him, when you lose a manager in the season you have the situation of who comes in?“Are they going to get the manager they want for the next three, four years at the football club? It is not just as easy as saying ‘let’s get rid of the manager’ because Manchester United need a reset and it is not just the manager. It’s deeper than that.”The former United star – an eight-time Premier League title winner with the club – went on to slam their performance at Anfield.Paul Pogba failed to even make it off the bench for the visitors, and Nevile says the World Cup winner would have had his head in his hands watching the performances of his central midfield colleagues.Pogba only got to touch the ball in the warm up3

“Liverpool are streets ahead. Streets,” he said. “If youre Paul Pogba watching Matic, Herrera, Fellaini, Fred played the other night, not one of them can pass a football. Not one of them can actually receive the ball and pass the ball, they can’t take the ball.“I find it staggering. United were awful. They were hanging in there for a bit but the only real team who were going to win the game was Liverpool. It’s not good enough.”
