Schmeichel: Neville on Mignolet was 'out of order'

Former Manchester United goalkeeper, Peter Schmeichel, has criticised Gary Neville's analysis of Liverpool goalkeeper Simon Mignolet saying it was 'a character assassination'.

Schmeichel said: "I was shocked a couple of weeks back when it was a character assassination that Gary Neville did to Simon Mignolet. I have to say I don鈥檛 think the boy has done too bad since that night where he was taken apart by (Jamie) Carragher and Neville."

"I just think what was done on Monday Night Football was out of order because it was a really, really good shot, and it was demonstrated how low he was, but by someone who鈥檚 played right back all his life.鈥
