Gary Neville: Man Utd not good enough to win the Premier League

Gary Neville does not believe that Manchester Unitedhave what it takes to win the Premier League this season.

The Red Devils fell further behind leaders Chelsea after they were held to a 2-2 draw by West Brom at The Hawthorns on Monday night.

And with United now 10 points behind the pace-setters, Neville feels that his former side are not capable of winning the title.

“At this moment in time this Man United team isn’t good enough to win the league,” Neville told Sky Sports.

“Louis Van Gaal asked for three months when he came in and he’s reassessed that. It’s a tougher job than he imagined and in the next eight games they’ve got tough opponents.

“At the start of the season after eight games you would have said they would have been on 16 or 17 points. There’s been a lot of upheaval. It’s been tough for him. Coming out of the World Cup he was drunk with praise, but I think it’s sobered him up slightly.

“There’s a big belief, I think he will get it right. A lot of good players have been signed but there’s been so many injuries, particularly in defence. There’s something there but it’s going to take him longer.”
