Gary Neville Podcast delivers verdict on Super Sunday as Sky Sports touts full football audio line-up
Neville back behind the mic with his Super Sunday verdict
Gary Neville has once again cast his expert eye over the Premier League weekend, with the latest edition of The Gary Neville Podcast seeing the former Manchester United captain deliver his verdict on the big Super Sunday games and the major issues across the top flight.
Sky Sports' refreshed podcast page, updated on Monday 12 October, promises analysis, "cutting-edge insight and opinion" from the Old Trafford legend, whose regular review of the weekend football comes "with his inimitable sharp eye and forthright views". The latest episode — along with the show's full back catalogue — is available to stream and subscribe via Apple Podcasts and Spotify.
Forthright views: from the studio to the back pages
Neville's blunt style has rarely been more prominent than earlier this season. On 21 September, following Manchester United's 1-1 Premier League draw at Fulham, Sky Sports reported that the co-commentator branded United's out-of-possession work "a genuine disgrace" and urged manager Michael Carrick to stop defending his players, while FotMob noted he also made a "mannequin" jibe about their off-ball display.
His words dominated the following morning's newspapers: the Daily Telegraph led with "Neville: That was the worst ever", the Daily Star's sports section ran "15 minutes of shame", and the Daily Express went with "United boss keeps calm after Neville Ful blast". BBC Sport's coverage of the episode likewise centred on Neville's criticism of United's "pathetic" lack of effort in the Fulham draw.
Carrick, for his part, refused to be rattled when Neville's remarks were put to him at full-time. The United manager said fitness levels were not an issue, insisted his side had not been passive against Fulham and pointed to encouraging signs ahead of the international break.
