'Look at you, gloating like little children': Gary Neville embarrasses himself with 'Liverpool didn't play well' remarks

'Look at you, gloating like little children': Gary Neville embarrasses himself with 'Liverpool didn't play well' remarks

There's not much to discuss after a 7-0 win apart from praising the winners but Gary Neville is of a different opinion.

The former United man clashed with Graeme Souness and Jamie Carragher in a heated debate on Sky Sports after Liverpool humiliated the Red Devils 7-0 on Sunday.

Souness and Carragher claimed that Neville said that Liverpool were poor against United while the retired full-back said the result was about United being bad, not Liverpool putting in a magnificent performance.

Souness: "Can I just pull it back, Gary put it on me at the start of the show, if I would repeat on the air that I think Liverpool will win well today, comfortably. Gary said off the air that he thought Liverpool played badly today."

Neville: "I didn’t say that."

Souness: "What did you say?"

Neville: "I said first half I think Man United were the better team. In the second half it was just about Manchester United’s capitulation."

Souness: "So that would be nothing to do with Liverpool playing well?"

Carragher: "You said you didn’t think Liverpool played well."

Neville "I don’t think Jurgen Klopp, he’ll analyse that game tomorrow and the momentum he’ll take from that, he won’t think oh, we’re back. He won’t fall into that trap. They won’t get carried away off the back of that, Liverpool, at all."

Souness: "We’re not talking about getting carried away, we’re talking about them playing well today."

Neville: "Hold on, hear me out. Look at you, gloating like little children."

Souness: "You can't come out with a daft remark that Liverpool didn't play well today..."

Neville: "They played alright in the second half, they won the game. Congratulations, well done. My point is this is a Manchester United story. When you get beat 7-0, it's about how bad the other team are...

"I still think Liverpool in that first half were really vulnerable. It was really shaky."

Souness: "So you think Man United were the better team in the first half?"

Neville: "I do."

Souness: "Not a chance."
