Man Utd legend Neville warns Solskjaer: These players turned off tap for Mourinho

Manchester United legend Gary Neville believes manager Ole Gunnar Solskjaer is overseeing a false dawn.

Neville still has doubts about the players.

He said, “I think when he [Solskjaer] came in, the club couldn't have been any lower in terms of expectation, there was a bad feeling around the club.

“He's done an incredible job, he's put himself in the frame and he keeps on winning. I think it's the best start for any Manchester United manager in the history of the club. It's unbelievable really.

“The Manchester United players at the end were obviously not trying for Mourinho as they just switched the tap on and off. The difference is incredible but I must admit I have my doubts about those group of players.

"It's that they can just switch on and off like a tap, it doesn't fill me with confidence that they can take Manchester United back to the title but what they are doing at least is performing to their capabilities."
