Gary Neville Reveals 5 Man Utd Stars Outshine Liverpool in Crucial Battle

And while Arne Slot began the Liverpool team's post-Jurgen Klopp era with a victory on Saturday, defeating Kieran McKenna's Ipswich Town 2-0, let us not forget that David Moyes's Manchester United tenure began with a 4-1 thumping of Swansea City at Wembley.

Neville firmly believes that his beloved Red Devils, rather than the giants of Merseyside, have a better chance of qualifying for the Champions League.

However, the dismal Moyes tenure at Old Trafford and Unai Emery's difficulties at Arsenal without Arsene Wenger do not indicate that Slot will fail at Anfield. A robust team with a plenty of young talent and significant Premier League experience awaits him.

Neville, though, feels that Man United's own options now outperform Liverpool in the center of the pitch, especially after Liverpool lost out on Martin Zubimendi, another top midfield target.

The cynics will now counter that Man United is vulnerable at number six as well. Even if Casemiro played better against Man City and in Friday's 1-0 victory against Fulham, there is still reason for concern.
However, the signing of Manuel Ugarte from Paris Saint-Germain could address that issue.

The negotiations appear to be going well. According to Fabrizio Romano, a loan agreement containing an obligation-to-buy clause in the contract of the hard-charging Uruguay international could be a means of reaching a settlement.
Neville, on the other hand, thinks Erik ten Hag has access to a deeper pool of information than Arne Slot does. especially if Scott McTominay, who was United's match-winning player so frequently last season, stays put.

"I believe Manchester United has superior midfield players," continues the eight-time Premier League champion. They have terrific guys in there, and I believe they have greater depth.

The midfield lineup for Man United was a complete disaster the previous season.

However, it was evident that progress had been made against City and Fulham, with Casemiro appearing stronger and more fit, a pressing monster in Mount back to full strength, and Mainoo now firmly established as a first-team regular.
