Gary Neville makes Manchester United Premier League title prediction

Manchester United great Gary Neville believes that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side might have to wait a few more years to win the Premier League.

United showed signs of improvement last season, finishing third in the top flight to secure Champions League football this term.

However, Neville believes that his former club is not yet ready to win the league title and believes Liverpool and Manchester City are still the teams to beat.

“The one thing I can guarantee you is that United will win again,” Neville told the Mirror. “That might not be this year or next year, but it will be amazing when they win again, and the longer it builds up, the greater the actual feeling is when you do it.

"I’m not sitting here, as a United fan, thinking, ‘We must win the league this year’. Yes, we’d like to, but you know when it’s your time and it’s not yet.

“It will be, maybe, when Klopp and Guardiola leave Liverpool and City – hopefully in the next couple of years! That will be the chance, as they’re two outstanding managers who have built really good teams, but they’ll leave in the next one, two or three years.

"That will be the point when United can come back in and capitalise – I’m sure Chelsea are thinking that way as well.”
