For how utterly horrendous Arsenal were, Liverpool do play some really exciting stuff. Considering the prices of players at the moment, Salah seems an absolute bargain

Gary Neville is behaving like a twat this afternoon, puerile comments.

He was spot on with them though
He would never of slagged Manu like that though, and if it had been the Villa my foot would of been through the telly, too biased for me.

Can't think of what to disagree with anything he said.
It was more how he was creaming himself during the game.

Not difficult to see why he lasted about 45 mins in management.

Agreed.

He absolutely detests Arsenal, and loves to show it.

Sky would never entertain someone who was so obviously a Man Utd hater.

Theres too many terrible pundits who sit on the fence and say the bare minimum to get by, I have no problem with Nevilles style.

I thought he was bang on today, he sounded like an angry Arsenal fan to me. If he hates them so much he would have seemed more smug and enjoyed their performance.

I find Neville very refreshing, not afraid to upset people, is insightful and I've heard him criticise Man United. He's streets ahead of every other pundit.

That would be fine, if he 'told it like it is' when Man Utd are shite - which they have been fairly recently - but he's not. I've heard him criticise Man Utd (through gritted teeth), but it always has a bunch of excuses as to why they are poor.

I think he particularly hates the German players, as they are targeted the most. Perhaps he's jealous of their World Cup winning medals?

Difference of opinion, I thought he wittered on like a real twat today, slagging Arsenal at every opportunity.

I couldn't disagree with anything  Neville said and it was a refreshing change seeing somebody not sitting on the fence.

Watching Monaco against Marseille, and Amavi is having an absolute shocker.

Wenger has stayed to long at Arsenal he's still a good manager but he needs a new challenge now

maybe a big historic club with a fine tradition similar to that of Arsenal who have won trophies in the past but have fallen on hard times now and need a football man to come and rebuild them again to their former greatness

I've only just noticed Ozil is playing, he's the invisible man each time I see an Arsenal match.
Apparently you can see his eyes from the moon but his team mates lose him in grass.

The Wenger contract extension is looking a daft decision right now.
Perfectly good decision IMO.😀
