Man United Legend Explains Why Club Cannot Win the Premier League This Season Even With Ronaldo

• Man United have endured a rough patch in recent days only weeks after they kicked off their season with a strong start
• United have already lost three of their last four matches across competitions and Gary Neville contends they stand no chance of winning the league this season
• According to the former Red Devils ace, his former club does not play as a unit when compared to their rivals challenging for the title
• The Old Trafford dwellers are currently placed fourth on the standings with 13 points, on level with Man City and Chelsea who occupy second and third places

Gary Neville has claimed Man United have no chance of winning the Premier League title this season.

United had widely been touted as favourites to win the domestic crown this term after a strong start but have hit a sticky patch in recent days.

They have lost three of their last four matches across competitions, with their recent defeat coming against Aston Villa on Saturday, September 25, at Old Trafford.

Kortney Hause was Villa's match-winner in their 1-0 victory, with Bruno Fernandes missing an injury-time penalty to deny his side a vital point.

While United now sit only a point off the top of the table, Neville still feels his former side will not be able to win the domestic crown this season.

According to the former England international, the Red Devils' lack of cohesiveness as a team is one of the key reasons why they stand no chance of conquering the domestic league.

"I said it even when they were winning, even when [Cristiano] Ronaldo scored, they don’t play well enough as a team to win this league in my view," Neville said on his Sky Sports podcast.

Neville added the task is now in the hands of Ole Gunnar Solskjaer to build a coherent team around the talented set of players he has within his disposal.

However, he contends still that won't be enough to help United catch rivals Man City, Liverpool, or Chelsea in the title race.

"I look at Chelsea, Liverpool and Man City, they are teams. They put team performances in. That’s not to say United never do, but Ole now has to get United into a team," he added.

Bruno Fernandes breaks silence after missing the penalty against Aston Villa

Earlier, Legit.ng reported that Bruno Fernandes has finally broken silence after missing the penalty that could have helped Manchester United avoid defeat during their Premier League meeting with Aston Villa at Old Trafford on September 25.

The 27-year-old was handed a golden chance to earn United a crucial point with virtually the last kick of the match after Kortney Hause handled the ball inside the area.

However, the Portuguese midfielder, who is renowned for his good penalty record rocketed his effort over the crossbar as Villa held firm on their earlier opener to claim a crucial win.

The defeat was the Red Devils' third in four matches as they dropped to fourth on the Premier League standings currently topped by Liverpool.
