Ole Gunnar Solskjaer’s side displayed the same confidence which has defined the Norwegian’s interim spell in charge.

Neville said while on co-commentary on Sky Sports: “He (Rashford) is the one now. He is their number one.

He added: “Both teams are looking really bright going forward, though.

“Manchester United look like the Manchester United of five or 10 years ago.”

Fans took exception to the tone of his remarks during the Premier League clash on Sunday, with Neville seemingly unable to contain himself.

Unhappy Spurs supporter Daniel Triplett wrote on Twitter: “It’s getting to the point where I’m muting my TV when Gary Neville is on commentary, unbelievable amount of bias.”

Stewart Mason added on the ex-Valencia coach: “Why doesn’t Gary Neville give his unwanted biased opinion to the Spanish league that he failed at so miserably.”

Stephen Beere questioned whether Sky’s marquee name should even be working on the fixture.

He said: “I am a big fan of Gary Neville but should he really be doing co-commentary on a Man Utd game?

“A couple of biased comments already and we are only 15 mins in.”

Many fans simply told Neville to stop talking.
