Gary Neville remains unhappy with Manchester United, following their loss to West Ham United on Sunday night, even blaming the Glazer family.
It was another bad night at Old Trafford for Erik ten Hag's side as they stumbled again in their hopes of finishing in the Premier League top four.
They lost to Brighton on Thursday night as Roberto de Zerbi's side took revenge in the FA Cup semi-final and needed a win at the London Stadium.
However, a terrible mistake by goalkeeper David de Gea and a particularly bad second half contributed to the last away defeat.

Consecutive negative results make Ten Hag's army one point ahead of Liverpool, the team is sublimated after winning six consecutive matches. United are still one game behind their opponents, with only four more to go, so it's still in their hands, but it was a lousy performance in London.
Neville was certainly not pleased with the loss, but instead of blaming the coach, or even the players, he blamed the Glazers.

"United were so bad in this game," the former United captain wrote on Twitter.
"ETH seeing more players in these situations is a positive thing. It allows him to put the people he wants on the bus. "The real shame is the Glazers. Are they waiting for the last match of the First Half to be over???
"The staff on and off the pitch are in an uncertain position awaiting a new owner! Not to mention what the hiring and budget will be! It should have been done!"

"Unlimited to the end!"
Of course, Neville's favorite partner, Jamie Carragher, is unconcerned, questioning Ten Hag's transfer policy and squad selection.
He's not the only one to point out problems with Sky's expertise. "The Glazers blame De Gea for not catching the ball. They are not good owners but constantly blaming them in every defeat is pathetic," a fan said.

"Thank God he didn't blame the Glazers for his lousy coaching career at Valencia," another said.
The third asked, "What do the Glazers have to do with what just happened?"
“It's on ETH and non-Glazer gamers,” another added.
And the fifth said, "Stop blaming the Glazers every time we lose. Yes, we should have more power in depth, but the players were seriously underwhelming today and that has nothing to do with the Glazers."

While Neville might be wrong to blame the Glazers for Sunday's or Thursday's loss, which are more likely to involve United players running out of legs at the end of the season, the words His overall criticism is understandable.
He has been talking about the lack of movement in the sale of the club for several weeks, and this is not the first time he has called them 'classless'.
The Glazers have sold their third round bid and have yet to choose a preferred bidder, amid speculation that they want to stay put and find a minority investor.
