Cannavoro won the ballon dor
Everything Gary said about the current England formation/system and the Golden Generation's including the players he would've picked is absolutely spot on..
IMO it has to change depending on who you pick in the starting 11 and if that means leaving out a Foden/Scholes for the benefit of the team's balance then so be it.. Something 99% of England managers haven't had the balls to do!
Carragher is wrong TAA should have been sold with two years left on his contract when Klopp was still secure and in the role if he wasn’t going to sign – this is from an arsenal fan
I'm a Sunderland fan loved Roy as manager his no nonsense approach brilliant! Me and my dad always had a soft spot for man u and the good day and now we both follow Salford soooo Gary why not give Roy the job for 18 months and see what happens
It’s not about hoping he flops… every Liverpool fan should want Madrid to play shit every week. Trent joining them doesn’t change anything.
One of the best eps.. love it
We need a montage of gary and Jamie's arguments
When talking about scholes, Gary did slip up and say 433 and “that’s where he would’ve played” he obviously meant 532 when Jamie pulled him up on it 😂
Lol 😆 they are really discussing about the future of Trent, but not for once have they ever questioned if he's happy at the club or not.. clowns
56:17 – Roy absolute loving the heated moment between Gary and carra 😂😂😂😂😂😂
Trent – Konsa – Guehi – Lewis Skelly ; Mainoo – Rice – Bellingham ; Foden; Saka Gordon —- play Foden as a no 10 , drop Kane !!
1:01:50 😂
Jill and Ian are national treasures.
I'm with Jamie on this one, foden hasn't done it for England, simple as
Gary definitely right about the fans view of Trent, Carra etc
Think Carra went in to wind up Nev on this! Wouldnt drop it
I fully agree with Carragher and Wrighty about Foden. He's done nothing for England, and he's nowhere near Bellingham's level!
Get Joey Barton on here….
Gary & Carra were defintely siblings in their past life
ok but was bellingham not moved around too, saka at wing back too, what a load of nonsense
Calm down Jamie! Very good impression of harry enfield’s “the scousers’
1:01:22 what a fucking team! He shut them up! As Beckham or Owen Hargreaves as a RWB.. we could've won a major tournament.
1:01:57 remember Gary shouting like that at the reff in his playing days.. couldn't hear him though.. I guess we now know what he sounded like on the pitch 😅
45:43 my Guess is that out of the three, Virgil is the only one staying
No goalkeeper is legendary patter from keane
Spent most the episode talking about Trent 🥱
I think England need to play a 4-2-4 with Foden as the second 9 playing just behind Kane off the left. let Gordon or whoever play wide on the left and have Kane and Foden dropping deep or running in behind alternately. Foden can cut in and out and play the little 1-2's with Gordon and Kane and actually get in spots to produce
…Carra said it well with the Trent on going
Trent would be better off going to Atletico. A beast of a coach, a team that loves to fight, and the chance to be the main man. It would transform him as a player and a man.
1:01:55 this is funny y'all
Gary Neville with the checkmate 1:01:25
"Stop saying oh my god"
one of the best show so far. well done boys. love hearing different opinions
Bloody awesome carragh. So many need this across the globe. Reach out to the Lyme community. Change lives!!! ❤
quite a heated episode this
Im a united fan n looking at the trent, VVD and Salah situation I honestly think liverpool are doing the right thing if it comes down to money. At united we've had 34yr olds come in and being highest paid player but Liverpool broke there was structure with salah now it looks like they're offering similar money and he wants more but they've already broke the structure n they won't break it again for a 30+ year old. Trent wants to go sample abroad but Liverpool will be fine bringing Bradley through more, I honestly think Liverpool arnt budging with trent because they have a very good youngster coming through who's better off the ball n can improve more on the ball but that's trents issue they arnt going to over him even more when they have a replacement already
So Gary rates Trent as one of the best players in the world as soon as he is leaving for nothing, last season he was critical about his defending week in week out
You do no football is all opinions
This 5 and i would add Micah, Shearer, Lineker and Rooney, and 5 hours podcasts every day.
Gary & Jamie going at it today hahaha
Keane drops in to lighten the mood with… "no chance, you haven't got a goalkeeper" 😂
I'd wear wrighty! Get a clothing brand out sir!!
Love that bloke! Die hard united fan but I've always admired him and would love to meet the man himself!
gary was on fire this week, just class
I would definitely wear a Wrighty hoodie or hat.
What a great episode that was !
Gill is Spot on Foden and why he excels at City ( Maybe not this season)
England don’t have a system for Foden point blank
Phil Foden and Harry Kane cannot play in the same team
