You are just going to have to back certain players and go with them and stick with it, rather than changing it every single game.“The buck stops with the manager and I have to say, at the moment, it doesn't look a balanced outfit there at all.” United did hold their own against Spurs for long periods before suffering a humbling defeat, with Neville suggesting that an inconsistent spell from the Red Devils is down to a lack of organisation. The former United defender added: “Before the game we didn't have a clue how Manchester United were going to set up and I'm not sure anyone would have picked that starting system.“They may have worked on it in the last four or five days, but Tottenham are so consistent and so stable. “With Manchester United, it's like you could throw those balls [players] into a bingo machine and anyone could come out at any time. You don't know where [Paul] Pogba is going to be or where Fred is going to be. [Ander] Herrera is centre-back and [Jesse] Lingard is all over the pitch. “There's only a couple of players where you know where they are going to be. There is such a disorganisation at times that they were always going to get beat once the game settled down, even though there was a lot of spirit in the performance.”</blockquote>
