Former Manchester United defender Phil Neville has blasted Chris Smalling and Phil Jones for their performance against Newcastle United on Sunday.

The Red Devils fell 1-0 to the relegation strugglers.

"They have got the best defensive record because they have the best goalkeeper in the world in David De Gea and [Nemanja] Matic out in front who protects them really well," Neville said.

"But the last two away games [against Tottenham and Newcastle], Smalling and Jones have been a disaster.

"Against Dele Alli and Harry Kane, they got bullied."
