Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher are agreed that Manchester United are in danger of not even making the top six this season.

United visit Norwich City on Sunday just two points above the relegation zone in 14th place, and aiming for their first win in five Premier League games.

Neville and Carragher were fierce rivals on the pitch in their day, but they were both in agreement that Ole Gunnar Solskjaer's side may not even make the Europa League places this season, let alone qualify for the Champions League.

United drew 1-1 at home to Liverpool last Sunday, but that came on the back of two league defeats on the bounce, with Solskjaer's men beaten 1-0 by struggling Newcastle and 2-0 at the hands of West Ham.

Asked whether United could drop out of the top six, Neville said: "They absolutely could. I always worry a little bit when you come out of a big game which is easy to get up for and a reaction was needed, when you say 'I was proud of my players today' because you need to be proud of your players every single week.

"You couldn't be more confident going into the game against Norwich than you were against Liverpool.

" Manchester United have let you down this season. West Ham , Southampton , other games of this nature where they've been really poor.

"Can those players get up for those games, can they break teams down who defend deep and counter-attack on them?"

Carragher fears United's lack of a goal threat will see them miss out on a top-six spot.

The former Liverpool defender was speaking ahead of Leicester's stunning 9-0 demolition of Southampton, which fired the Foxes up to second in the Premier League table and confirmed their intent to upset the traditional big guns this season.

United finished sixth last season after their form nosedived towards the end of the campaign, and Carragher said: "I don't think they'll get top four.

"When we're talking about Leicester getting top six and we're not quite sure who will miss out, certainly Man United will be one of the big candidates of the top six to miss out, with Leicester going strong.

"I think it was promising last week for Manchester United, I think first-half they were excellent. But you can't play like that against the majority of teams they come up against.

"Actually seeing Manchester United in the next couple of games against Norwich and Bournemouth , they're tests for Manchester United - are they good enough to go and open those teams up?

"They have a massive problem, they can't score more than one goal in a game."
