Manchester United fell behind early at Selhurst Park when Andros Townsend’s strike deflected off Victor Lindelof to leave David De Gea helpless.
Crystal Palace’s attack for the goal came after a long ball from Pogba failed to reach its target.
Neville was critical of Pogba for that and for his whole performance in the opening 45 minutes.
The Sky Sports pundit said it is like Pogba does not take things seriously and everything is for “a YouTube or Instagram video”.

Neville admits it is clear why Manchester United manager Jose Mourinho has left him out of the team of late.
“It’s been nowhere near good enough,” Gary Neville said on Sky Sports.
“The man on the ball there at the start of the Crystal Palace goal is Paul Pogba.
“His great strength is that he plays with freedom and like he’s playing on the part with his mates but his great weakness is that he’s playing on the park with his mates.
