Gary Neville is worried about a Manchester United star and claims the player is 'well of it'.

Man United's three-game winning streak came to an end on Saturday as Ruben Amorim's team were held at Nottingham Forest.

Amad Diallo scored a stunning goal in the 81st minute to rescue a point for his side.

Casemiro had given the visitors the lead before goals from Morgan Gibbs-White and Nicolo Savona turned things around for the hosts.

Man United fans on social media made their feelings clear on one player and called for Amorim to drop him.

Neville also shared his thoughts on Man United's draw at the City Ground as he singled out Benjamin Sesko, who started Saturday's league fixture.

Sesko, who has two league goals to his name, was unable to influence the match and was criticised by the ex-Red Devils captain following the result.

Neville described Sesko as 'awkward' and claimed he is 'well of it' compared to fellow summer signings Matheus Cunha and Bryan Mbeumo.

"I’m no further forward with him. The jury is out," he said on NBC Sports.

"He’s well off it compared to the other summer signings that Man United made up front in [Matheus] Cunha and [Bryan] Mbeumo.

"He looks awkward, he had a couple of really good opportunities in the first half when balls got played over the top and his touch wasn’t quite right."

Neville added: "For 80 million pound, you can say he’s young, has a lot of potential and is only just settling in, but you still want to see a bit more."

Alan Shearer compares Benjamin Sesko to Arsenal's Viktor Gyokeres

Sesko was a big summer signing for Man United - just like Viktor Gyokeres, who moved to Arsenal.

And Shearer shares the same sentiment on both forwards who joined their respective clubs for huge fees.

On BBC Radio 5 Live, Shearer explained: "I would say the same with Sesko as I would with Gyokeres. I think both clubs paid an astronomical amount of money for both players, probably because of the club’s demands, and the price was hiked up.

"I think he’s a good player, I wouldn’t say he’s a great player. And I think at times he will be frustrating, and we’re always going to look at the fee, whether that’s right or wrong because that’s what’s paid for him and we have to judge him on that. I wouldn’t get too excited, I think he’s a good player."
