Gary Neville has made a Premier League title prediction for Manchester United as he feels the club will still fall short to lift the trophy this term.
United are expected to rival for the league title after getting reunited with the club's former star Cristiano Ronaldo. However, former Red Devils star doesn't think United will "have to adapt too much" to the Portuguese's arrival.
"They have fantastic forward players, good creative players too, with Jadon Sancho wide, Marcus Rashford, Anthony Martial, Mason Greenwood, they should create plenty of chances for him," Neville said.
"The performances so far, they've really struggled in their two away games, but they have a number of players who can go and win a match in a moment."
On Ronaldo, he added:
"His willingness and want to score goals is better than anyone. The big question is whether it's enough to win the title. I don't quite feel it is, the Premier League is the strongest it's been since the mid-2000s.
"I think for Manchester United it's an incredible addition to their squad, United did need a centre forward, but in terms of his physical aspect, he's almost 28, 29, 30 when you look at him. People will look at a young Cristiano and think how he used to beat five or six players in wide areas, he's now more efficient.
"If Cristiano Ronaldo of now was there eight years ago, he'd still be labelled a world-class player. His movement in the box, ability to score goals, composure in front of goal and taking chances still makes him world-class - and far from over the hill."
