Neville On Man. United's Dominance

Gary Neville says Burnley could not have complained if Manchester United had scored “six, seven or eight” goals such, was their dominance on Saturday.

Jose Mourinho was sent to the stands and Ander Herrera saw red as United were held to a goalless draw by a Tom Heaton-inspired Burnley at Old Trafford.

For United, it was a case of everything but the goal as they had 37 shots, but found Heaton in inspired form as he made 11 saves.

Zlatan Ibrahimovic was the chief profligate for United, missing at least three gilt-edged chances from 12 shots at goal, meaning he has now gone six league games without scoring for the first time since December 2007 with Inter Milan.

"It was bizarre," co-commentator Neville said. "I think you have to give Burnley some credit for the blocks and for the fact they put their bodies on the line.

"Plus, Tom Heaton made some fantastic saves, but I don't think I've seen United have as many chances as they had here for a long time. They should have won that game.

"It could have been six, seven or eight and Burnley wouldn't have had any complaints. They were brilliant chances. The Zlatan Ibrahimovic chance at the end just summed it up."

Mourinho's side are now without a Premier League win in four matches and are eight points off the top spot, but Neville refused to cristicse his former side.

"United created so many chances and should have taken them," Neville added. "It's not happening for them at the moment or Ibrahimovic, who is a good finisher. 

"He's scored goals all over the world - he'll not believe, he's not scored a goal in that match.

"There wasn't any negative reflections on any of the United players as I think they played well today. I don't think they could have done any more apart from putting the ball in the back of the net.

"You can sometimes have days like that. I think when you're a player in the dressing room and you've had nearly 40 shots on goal and created some unbelievable moments, you can only think 'how have we not won that game?'

"It's a little bit of bad luck they're having at the moment - it's certainly a blow. That was a game that they absolutely dominated."
