Neville says Man United defence must eradicate ‘liability of conceding goals’

Comments

1. Onyx Oracle: pressure? sounds like a classic 'we've been saying this for ages' narrative from Neville. agree that United's defence needs to step up, but is he really contributing anything
2. Noahsantosxo: conceding twice in one game? not exactly a surprise, is it?
3. Shadow Rune: i still don't get why they're so reliant on having the majority of possession to win - can't they just learn to counter-press better?
4. Mayakaurxo: yeah they need to fix their defense, been leaking goals all season. anyone else think the return of Ronaldo is just buying them time?
5. Elin: i think gary's right to point out the defense is a problem but it's also an honest reflection of our inconsistency this season
6. Mia: a liability might be an understatement
7. Bergamir: seems like they're finally talking about something that's been killing them all season
8. Echo Pulse: Neville makes a valid point, but has he forgotten that United's attack hasn't exactly been setting the world alight either? They've relied on Lukaku's goals too
9. Yara: I'm not convinced they've identified the real problem here - how are their midfielders tracking back to help defend?
10. Shadow Rune: i don't think blaming the defense entirely is fair to De Gea - he's been dealing with a lot of flak lately
11. Talia: can't help but think they've been caught flat-footed again by some quick interplay
12. Selim: I'm still trying to understand why they can't seem to find a solution. Two years into Rangnick's tenure and they're still struggling with set pieces
