(Reuters) - Former Manchester United players have queued up to pass judgment on their old team under Jose Mourinho, whose negative game plan in a disappointing 0-0 draw at Liverpool on Monday sparked a lively debate over the club's direction.

While Gary Neville predicted that United would not win the league this season, Ryan Giggs said he would accept the manner of Monday's performance in which they had just 35 per cent possession, the lowest in any of their games since statistics were first collected in 2003.
