Gary Neville was bored by Manchester United's pursuit of Jadon Sancho.

Manchester United Closing in on Sancho Again! A transfer should be a joy and a moment of excitement . I've never been more bored by a transfer in my life to the point I feel like he's already signed and I want to know who is next already. Not the lads fault at all I should say!

Seeing @Giannis_An34 tell his teammates not to have @TheTraeYoung shake his shoulders at them again then go out and blitz his team was 🔥 to me. Old skool mindset. 1-1 #NBAPlayoffs pic.twitter.com/sQMY4UQ0nn
