Neville mocks Liverpool players for poor display during Man City defeat

Premier League

Gary Neville was revelling in Liverpool’s huge loss to Manchester City on Thursday, even suggesting the Reds players had spent too much time on the lash before the match. Although Guardiola’s side showed Liverpool plenty of respect before the clash, granting them a guard of honour, but there was no love lost on the pitch as Man City ran riot. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); First half goals from Kevin De Bruyne, Raheem Sterling and Phil Foden saw the home side race into an early lead at the Etihad and an own goal from Alex Oxlade-Chamberlain ensured a heavy 4-0 defeat for Liverpool in their first game as champions.

David De Gea no longer reliable at Man Utd – Gary Neville

Premier League

Gary Neville believes David de Gea's drop in no longer reliable at Manchester United and has urged the goalkeeper to go "back to basics". De Gea had the finger of blame pointed in his direction for Tottenham's goal in the 1-1 draw with the Red devils on Friday night. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The error drew huge criticism from Roy Keane - and the pundit had also labelled the Spanish keeper arrogant after the club's 1-1 draw with Everton in March. The numbers do not look good as De Gea has now made seven errors leading to opposition goals since the start of last campaign, that is the joint-most among Premier League players. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Neville believes his standards have dropped and puts the poor for...

Fabregas slams Man Utd duo Gary Neville & Rooney over infamous Pizzagate clash

Premier League

Former Arsenal midfielder Cesc Fabregas has taken a pop at Manchester United legends Gary Neville and Wayne Rooney for their roles in the pizzagate game against the gunners, where the Invincibles were beaten. Arsenal travelled to Old Trafford in October 2004 on a 49-match unbeaten run but were beaten 2-0, with referee Mike Riley ignoring a couple of hugely cynical fouls from the home side before awarding a soft penalty to Rooney in the game. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); After the game, the players went into the tunnel with Cesc Fabregas rather infamously lobbing a slice of pizza at Manchester United manager Sir Alex Ferguson. The Spaniard had just broken into the first-team squad at the time and was an unused sub that day at the theatre of dreams, th...

Odion Ighalo not worth £20m – Gary Neville

Premier League

Gary Neville concedes Odion Ighalo probably isn't worth the £20million transfer valuation placed on him by his club Shanghai Shenhua. Ighalo has surprised many supporters with his level of performance since he joined Manchester United on loan late on January deadline day. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); The Nigerian forward has scored four goals in eight games since joining United earlier in the year, with his last goal against LASK in the Europa League on March 12 - United's last match before the campaign was put on hold. Neville admits Ighalo was on course to justify his hefty summer price tag, but feels the money could probably be spent elsewhere rather than making his move permanent. • Lampard drops Dries Mertens Chelsea transfer hint on Instagram ...

Gary Neville blasts Chelsea board over Coutinho transfer move

Premier League

Gary Neville has blasted Chelsea board for pursuing £75million Philippe Coutinho from Barcelona amid the coronavirus crisis. Barcelona have reportedly offered Chelsea the opportunity to sign former Liverpool midfielder Coutinho this summer window. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); But Manchester United legend Gary Neville believes it is ‘illogical’ for Chelsea to even be considering transfer moves at a time when their current players could be set to take pay cuts at the club. This week, it was reported that Chelsea players have agreed to take a 10 per cent pay cut as they look to reduce losses from lack of revenue during the coronavirus crisis. • Thomas Partey’s agent reveals truth over Arsenal move • Inter Milan discipline Lukaku over ‘misleading’ ...

Neville reveals the ‘big problem’ that made Cristiano Ronaldo leave Man Utd

Premier League, Trending

(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); Neville says the team were prepared for his exit as a result and he never tried to convince him to stay at the club, having sensed that he had his heart set on a transfer move to sunny Spain. Speaking on Sky Sports, Neville said: ‘I think because he did the interview after the 2008 final where he sort of alluded to the fact that ...

Gary Neville mocks Carragher after Liverpool’s title party is delayed by coronavirus

Premier League

Manchester United legend Gary Neville could not resist winding up Carragher after the suspension of the Premier League delayed Liverpool’s hopes of winning the title. With seven teams having either players or staff in self-isolation due to coronavirus, the Premier League made the dramatic decision to suspend the competition until the weekend of April 4.

Premier League

Gary Neville believes Manchester United’s recruitment in the last seven years has been ‘unforgivable’ as he hit out at the club’s hierarchy after a 2-0 defeat to Liverpool. Goals from Virgil van Dijk and Mohamed Salah were able to put Liverpool 16 points clear at the top of the Premier League, and United hero Neville is resigned to the fact that their most bitter rivals will be winning the Premier League trophy for the first time. (adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); While he praised Liverpool for the team they’ve put together under Jurgen Klopp, Neville wouldn’t hide his frustration at how far the Red devils have fallen and took aim at those in the boardroom for a string of poor investments in the market. ‘I can’t believe the investment that’s been put ...
