Gary Neville has slammed Lisandro Martinez for his ‘appalling and wimpish’ defending against Tottenham.
Manchester United headed into the break a goal down after Dominic Solanke’s close-range finish opened the scoring.
Ruben Amorim’s men found themselves 2-0 down just a minute into the second-half when Martinez backheeled the ball into Dejan Kulusevki’s path and the Spurs winger scored.
Neville said: ‘The next goal was always going to be key. It’s a little bit scruffy to start with but they get it out to that far side.
‘Son, just that little roll round and overlap from Maddison a bit of quality. I have to say the clearance from Lisandro Martinez is quite simply appalling.
‘To play that straight to Kulusevski and even though its on his weaker foot he doesn’t make the mistakes that the Manchester united players made in the first half when it presented at the edge of the box. He’s a little bit nearer but it’s emphatic.
‘He’s been let down by two poor mistakes Ruben Amorim he really has. You talk about structure, shape, patterns, tactics but the goalkeeper parries one out into the centre of the box and your centre back flicks with the outside of his left boot a wimpish clearance.’
