Gary Neville

[Annihilate Now!]

Think its a fairly hard season to predict after City to be honest - especially with two weeks of the window left... you could throw 5 teams up in the air for where they will land between 2nd-6th.

I'd go City, Arsenal, Liverpool, United, Chelsa Newcastle

 

[Idxomer]

He definitely had United 4th when he and Carragher were discussing respective predictions... Not that I blame him especially for changing his mind after seeing us against Wolves

That doesn't explain why he has Villa instead of Newcastle in the top 6 after their game.

 

[TrustInJanuzaj]

I don't think that can be right. I watched the show and he had us 3rd or 4th and made a big song and dance about Carrigher changing his predictions since the overlap a couple weeks ago.

 

[Shane88]

Carragher battered him here.

 

[altodevil]

Carragher battered him here.

What a fecking moron

 

[Remember the geese]

The two of them are great together.

 

[Annihilate Now!]

Carragher battered him here.

Carragher is very good at trivia stuff - only one I got before Carragher was Dublin.

 

[The Cat]

Nev needs specs.

 

[hasanejaz88]

What a fecking moron

Carragher was genuinely impressive with some of the guesses, but Neville not being able to guess Vidic, and taking so long for Cantona, was embarrassing

 

[Idxomer]

Getting Cantona on the 3rd attempt

 

[WeePat]

Carragher battered him here.

Lukaku. Onana

Neville saw the United and Inter badges and ignored everything else.

That last one was crazy. Chelsea badge right there and he's shouting Seedorf and Davids.

 

[GlasgowCeltic]

you can tell from the CBS coverage Carragher is a true football obsessive, whereas I think Neville doesn’t pay much attention outside Utd and England

 

[Xaviesta]

I got the James Milner one quickly. You'd want Carragher on your team for football trivia night.

 

[Samid]

Wish someone at the club had the balls to ban this ABU wanker from Old Trafford.

 

[eire-red]

He obviously loves United, but just jumps on every negative thing about United and spins it at the end about the Glazers.

It's tiresome. I like The Overlap, but I wish Sky only hired ex managers or even actual sports analysts or something.

Every weekend it's like watching Fan TV.

Thats what sky wants. It's why they have youtube fans on the overlap and why they have them on that Saturday social thing. It's why they're always pitting Neville and Carragher in United v Liverpool arguments and why Keane is there. Souness mentioned that the people in the studio are always checking twitter to see if they go viral during the post match reactions and it shows in their discussions.

What goes viral more often: sober and accurate analysis or angry rants?

Yeah and I totally get it. They pay so much in rights, they need to appeal to the masses, which these days means more drama and exaggerated, biased, analysis and narratives.

I used to watch the build-ups and post match. Now I switch over at like 4.29pm and turn off after the game so I don't have to suffer idiots like Daniel Sturridge or Theo Walcott for too long.

I can imagine myself watching with the sound off in a few years. I wish you could toggle commentary like subtitles.

Yeah I agree. I'd probably prefer no commentary on BT/TMT but sky isn't too bad (mostly). I don't watch the pre or post match stuff either. When it comes to actual match analysis, I just go to Tifo, Jonathan Wilson or the athletic.

 

[The Corinthian]

He's insufferable. I try and find another stream when he commentates on our games. He makes what should be a fun past time (watching footy) unenjoyable.

 

[Samid]

State of this gooner.

 

[M Bison]

State of this gooner.

eh?

 

[rajds89]

eh?

Gary is definitely an Arsenal fan.

 

[kaku06]

State of this gooner.

He’s a coward. Desperately wants to be seen objective to the point where he would bend over if need be to start licking rivals arse. Bows down to the pressure of rival fans. Scared to say the right things.

How's he saying that isn't handball?! Has he been living under a rock under the last 5 years?

harsh if you're a spurs fan, want it given if you're an Arsenal fan

 

[2cents]

What is with this “ooohhhhhh” every time something happens?

 

[Kazi]

State of this gooner.

Spurs fan today

 

[IRELANDUNITED]

How has he managed an almost 20 year career if he still doesn’t know what a handball is. That penalty was as clear as they come.

 

[cyberman]

Gary has argued against a few obvious decisions this season and he makes it worse by going on and on about it.

 

[The Corinthian]

What is with this “ooohhhhhh” every time something happens?

It’s his version of ‘and it’s live!’.

 

[Ayoba]

What is with this “ooohhhhhh” every time something happens?

For the gram, or whatever social media platform is in these days

 

[IRELANDUNITED]

Ohhhhhhhhhhhhhh

I wonder at what stage of commentary school do they teach you that one.

 

[Cascarino]

What is with this “ooohhhhhh” every time something happens?

I don’t mind him but this is doing my head in

Wasn't a handball when Romero did the same thing against us so...

 

[horsechoker]

Yeah but we were being punished for the Onana incident v Wolves

 

[Gabriel Djemba-Bebe]

Exactly.

 

[Donaldo]

Don't think I've hated a commentator as much as this prat now that I have to listen to him regularly on my feed.

Where have you been for a decade

 

[M Bison]

i'll never understand why our fans get so wound up by him, amazes me. Top bloke imo.
