Gary Neville highlights Manchester United "resilience"

Gary Neville highlights the resilience of the Manchester United squad after a run of form that has taken them up to third in the Premier League.

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has talked up the "resilience" of the squad ahead of Sunday's derby with Manchester City.

United have lost just two games since November, form which has taken them up to third in the Premier League.

"United have built their run, even when their form wasn't good, on resilience," Neville told Sky Sports News.

"They weren't losing a lot of football matches, but now the performances are there and they look a good team. Even those team qualities were there in the bad times earlier in the season.

"So I think all season, they've shown their resilience and their quality."

Victory on Sunday will take United four points clear of their neighbours in the table.
