Kindee1688 Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville has slammed Manchester United boss Ruben Amorim over his side’s 2-0 defeat to Crystal Palace at the weekend, saying they need to stop being biased towards two professional strikers, Joshua Zirkze and Rasmus Hojlund. Kindee1688

In the end, Serkse and Hoylund, who cost a combined £100m, came in for the second half but were unable to turn the game around.
This leads to ‘Nev’s’ conclusion that the 40-year-old coach made the wrong move from the start.
It is time to stop vilifying the legacy of former manager Erik ten Hag by using a strong striker to crush the opposing defender first, then change the game on the field.
“I can think of one or two things off the top of my head,” he told The Gary Neville Podcast.
“Maybe it’s an experiment to solve his problem, to see if it works for what he likes, the system he wants to play.”
“Or else it’s because they despise the existing strikers.”
“When I saw the starting line-ups announced before the game, I thought Bruno Fernandes or Alejandro Garnacho would go for False-9.”
“But when I saw Cobbie Menou there, I thought positively that everything would be perfect.”
“From Palace’s perspective, they must have been surprised because their opponents didn’t have a real finisher in their team.”
“I’m not saying that if Hoylund were to take over as number 9, it would cause any panic for Palace, but at least he’d have a tough unit to challenge, or even Serkse, who’s big.”
“I don’t mean to imply that they are both great players, but I just don’t see how United are going to score.”
“How will the first 11 players who are sent down find a way to get into the net?”
Serkse, the 9.5 striker defined by Ten Hag, his former boss scored three league goals in his first season with the ‘Red Devils’.
The Danish striker scored two goals, and netizens teased him about his lack of practice because he was busy treating his acne.
