In a lackluster Manchester derby, Manchester United and Manchester City played to a goalless draw, with neither side seizing critical points in the Premier League. Man City missed a chance to break into the top four while United, now sitting 13th, struggles for a top-half finish. Commentary from Neville was notably critical, highlighting a pervasive lack of urgency and creativity on both sides. He lamented the negative impact of over-management in football, suggesting teams are losing their rhythm and identity, causing matches to become increasingly boring and risk-averse.
United's goalkeeper rolling his foot on the ball and waiting for things to happen. That's not it. That's not what this club is and not what we do here.
This robotic nature of not leaving our positions... not having any freedom to take a risk to go and try and win a football match is becoming an illness in the game.
