EPL: Gary Neville fumes at Pogba’s penalty miss after 1-1 draw with Wolves

Former Manchester United defender, Gary Neville, was left fuming, after Paul Pogba missed a penalty, during a 1-1 draw with Wolves on Monday.

Pogba was fouled by Conor Coady, before stepping back up to take the spot kick, which he smashed straight at keeper Rui Patricio.

It was the fourth penalty the World Cup winner has missed in the last year.

Before then, cameras spotted Pogba and Rashford discussing who should be taking the kick.

Neville, speaking on Sky Sports, said he was baffled about the decision over the kick-taker and suggested a lack of leadership on the pitch led to the confusion.

“Why is there a debate on who takes the penalty? I don’t like it. There should never be a debate.

“Pogba has missed four in the last 12 months. You’d think he has had his chance.

“Rashford scored last week – take the penalty. But there wasn’t a leader out there.

““We don’t come on air tonight and ask each other which pieces of analysis we’re doing – we decide before we come on.

“They should decide in the dressing room – it’s embarrassing. This is a Manchester United penalty – this isn’t a tombola,” Neville said.
