Ahead of the UEFA Europa League final clash next week, Gary Neville has claimed that Manchester United midfielder, Bruno Fernandes is the only Red Devils star who would get into Tottenham Hotspur’s starting XI.
Nevile is of the opinion that Tottenham Hotspur have better players in every position than Manchester United going into the UEFA Europa League final on Wednesday, May 21.
The former defender told The Overlap that he had a “sickly feeling” about the final next week in Bilbao, Spain.
He said via Football 365, “I’ve genuinely got a sickly feeling about this game next Wednesday.
“The biggest reason is when I look at every single player in the Tottenham team, when you look at (Dejan) Kulusevski, Son (Heung-min), Brennan Johnson, (Dominic) Solanke, if (James) Maddison was there, (Yves) Bissouma and (Pape Matar) Sarr, (Cristian) Romero and (Micky) Van de Ven, (Pedro) Porro and (Destiny) Udogie, when you look at those players, like-for-like with United’s, only Bruno Fernandes would get into Tottenham’s first XI.
“I would select every single Tottenham player. The goalkeeper is a 50-50 split because I don’t like (Guglielmo) Vicario and I’m not a fan of (Andre) Onana.
“Honestly, Udogie, Porro, Van de Ven, Romero, Bissouma, Sarr, Johnson, Maddison, Solanke, Kulusevski, Son, I would choose every single player of Tottenham’s over Manchester United’s next Wednesday. That’s my worry.”
Manchester United and Tottenham will play this season’s Europa League final in Spain after beating Athletic Bilbao and Bodo/Glimt, respectively, in the semifinals.
