'100 years of progress undone in 8 months!' - Neville slams Man Utd hierarchy but insists Mourinho not to blame

The former Red Devils defender believes the Portuguese coach is not the main reason for the club's worst start to a season for 29 years

Former Manchester United defender Gary Neville says the club's hierarchy, and not manager Jose Mourinho, are to blame for the club's current plight.

The 3-1 defeat to West Ham on Saturday was United's third in their opening seven Premier League games, contributing to their worst start to a season for 29 years.

Reports are already suggesting that Mourinho could be sacked as early as this week following a beginning to the campaign which also included an exit from the Carabao Cup at the hands of Derby County.
