Gary Neville is adamant Erik ten Hag doesn’t believe Manchester United can win the Premier League title after he ‘prioritised’ the Europa League clash against Barcelona over Sunday’s victory over Leeds United.

United are two points behind second-placed Manchester City and five behind leaders Arsenal after they beat Leeds 2-0 at Elland Road.

‘I genuinely don’t think they are in the title race,’ Neville said on Sky Sports.

‘What was interesting was I was watching the second half and I didn’t think they were going to get the goal and I didn’t think they were going to get the win.

‘At that point I was thinking Erik ten Hag has actually prioritised the Barcelona game this week. He’s put Martinez and Varane on the bench and saved them for Barcelona and played Shaw and Maguire at centre-back.

‘If he thought he could win the Premier League he would obviously prioritise that so I think he’s even thinking the title is beyond them this season. He got away with it today and it’s worked but I just don’t think they can win the Premier League.

‘They’ve got so many games and I just don’t think they’re at the level of Man City and Arsenal right now.’
