Everton’s 10-point deduction has been the biggest story to emerge from the Premier League over the international break and Man United legend Gary Neville is not happy about the whole situation. 

The Toffees were punished for breaking the league’s financial rules and were handed the biggest punishment ever dished out as a result, which many in the football community deem very unfair.

This comes amid Man City and Chelsea also being under investigation for financial rules breaches and Man United legend Gary Neville is not happy with the current state of the league, which includes the power the Big Six clubs have.

The Sky Sports pundit believes the trust in the league has evaporated and that the greed of the big clubs have turned them into bullies as they want to control the upper spots of the table and are happy to throw others under the bus to achieve it.

Everton are in the relegation zone after points deduction

Speaking on the latest episode of Stick To Football, Neville has stated that he’d be furious if he was an Everton fan and that the Premier League are scared of Man City.

“The trust and faith has gone completely (in the Premier League),” the Man United legend said on the show.

“The greed and selfishness is out of control it’s lawless. The Premier League is a defunct organisation.

“I’d be furious if I was an Everton fan. I’d feel like it is an absolute disgrace what you’ve done to my club. Big Six, they’re bullies.

With 115 charges hanging over their head, Neville believes that the Premier League are “frightened to death of Manchester City” and is evidently not happy about their situation either.

Football has been broken for a long time, evident in the amount of money being spent and the same teams have been seen winning all the time for a good number of years across Europe.

The sport is limited in the amount of fairytale stories being produced these days and the greed of organisations and big clubs continues to get worse and worse as the years pass by.

It’s only taken a couple of months and the millions that Steven Gerrard is making in Saudi Arabia for him to be embroiled in a row as to who is football’s GOAT.

The Greatest Of All Time argument will continue for as long as a ball is kicked and is completely subjective, meaning that whether you’re pro-Messi, pro-Ronaldo or anyone else, there’ll always be plenty that will both support or argue against the decision.

For Gerrard, however, it’s a little embarrassing as a few months ago, in conversation with Gary Neville for The Overlap, he quickly named Lionel Messi as the best ever.

In an extensive interview for the Saudi Pro League, the former Liverpool legend named former United man, Cristiano, as the greatest.

Not a good look…

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has further risked the wrath of Arsenal fans by slamming the Gunners and calling them “pathetic” for releasing a statement to complain about the standards of refereeing after the 1-0 defeat to Newcastle United at the weekend.

The Magpies scored a controversial winner through Anthony Gordon, with VAR checking for three separate incidents that might have seen it disallowed, but ultimately deciding to give the goal.

Mikel Arteta was furious in his post-match press conference, and Neville believes the Premier League now need to get a grip on how clubs are responding to decisions they don’t like.

See below as Neville tells Sky Sports how unimpressed he was with how Arsenal handled the situation…

Neville has not been Mr Popular with Arsenal fans on social media in the last few days, but it seems he’s not too worried about angering them even further.

Arsenal and Newcastle now have Champions League games to look forward to this week, with Arteta’s side taking on Sevilla at home, while Eddie Howe’s men have a challenging trip to Borussia Dortmund.

Gary Neville has suggested Mauricio Pochettino will come away feeling worried despite Chelsea thrashing Tottenham 4-1 last night.

The Blues showed some quality on the night as Cole Palmer and Nicolas Jackson impressed, but they arguably also had a huge slice of luck as Spurs went down to nine men and continued to play with a very high line.

According to Neville, it became clear from this game that Pochettino’s Chelsea remain a long way from where they want to be, despite the flattering score-line…

Neville even said it was a rare example of a match where the winning manager and losing manager might both have precisely the opposite reactions to what you might expect from how it played out.

Tottenham will certainly feel that they outplayed Chelsea at points and could have won the game if they’d kept their heads a bit more, so it will be interesting to see how the final score ends up affecting their confidence.

Gary Neville has criticised Arsenal Football Club again after they backed Mikel Arteta after his passionate rant against the PGMOL on Saturday.

The Spaniard was furious after Newcastle were awarded a goal against his side which he deemed to be ’embarrassing’ and Bruno Guimaraes avoided a red card for a strike on Jorginho’s head.

The following day, Arsenal Football Club released a statement backing their manager, labelling the incidents as ‘yet more unacceptable refereeing and VAR errors’.

A lot of pundits have delivered varying opinions in the aftermath of the incident, including Neville who has been very vocal about his disagreement with the statement.

The former Manchester United player spoke out again on Sky Sport on Monday, labelling Arsenal’s statement and Liverpool’s previous one as ‘dangerous’.

‘I thought the statement was really poor,’ Neville said on Sky Sports via the Daily Mail.

‘Liverpool had a shocking one against them few weeks ago here and we knew it was wrong, there was feeling they had been hard done by.

‘A day after when Liverpool wrote statement with the suggestion of replay, I thought to be fair that was quite dangerous. The Arsenal statement is also quite dangerous.

‘All clubs signed a new behavioural charter and I’m not saying referees shouldn’t be put under pressure but clubs themselves should definitely behave better in these circumstances.

‘I’m looking at the Premier League and leadership in the Premier League, the reality of it is they have to start protecting referees, I was in favour of the transparency at the beginning of it.’

Manchester United legend Gary Neville has expressed his doubt about whether the club really needed to spend such big money on the signings of Mason Mount and Antony under current manager Erik ten Hag.

The Red Devils invested huge sums of money on bringing in Brazilian winger Antony from Ten Hag’s former club Ajax last year, while Mount joined from Chelsea this summer, and Neville has quite clearly questioned them in an interview with Webby and O’Neil.

See the video below as Neville admits that Man Utd clearly overpaid for Antony, as that’s just something they so often seem to do, while he also couldn’t understand why Mount was seen as a priority for the club…

Still, the pundit also made it clear that he didn’t want to be too critical of individual players in this MUFC squad due to the fact that he’s seen them perform at a higher level elsewhere.

This is far from the first time United have signed players only to see them go backwards, with the same happening with other big names like Paul Pogba, Angel Di Maria, Romelu Lukaku and Harry Maguire in the post-Sir Alex Ferguson era.

Richard Keys criticised Roy Keane and Gary Neville for their comments surrounding the Manchester United manager following the derby defeat.

The Red Devils were played off the park by their city rivals at Old Trafford on Sunday evening, losing 3-0 after a lacklustre performance.

Erik ten Hag has come under increasing pressure from the fanbase after a string of poor results and is now under the microscope more than ever.

Speaking after the game, Neville singled out the Glazer family as a major problem at the club but former Sky Sports presenter, Keys was having none of it.

Harry Maguire

‘There’s a lot of anger out there now, although the class of ‘92 continue to give him an easy ride,’ Keys wrote in his weekly blog via the Daily Mail.

‘I don’t agree with Jamie Carragher often, but he’s right when he says the guys would‘ve destroyed Mourinho – or similar – by now.’

‘Clearly the job is too big for Ten Hag. Clearly he’s lost his players,’ Keys added.

‘Clearly his ‘game plans’ are nonsense. Does he really believe that Utd were ‘toe to toe’ with City in the first-half? Clearly he’s deluded if he does.

Life at Tottenham has got off to a great start for James Maddison and Gary Neville believes the England international is the player who has the biggest impact on his club. 

The 26-year-old joined Spurs from Leicester over the summer and has played a big part in the North London club currently being top of the Premier League.

Maddison has scored three goals and assisted a further five across the opening nine matches of the campaign and Sky Sports pundit Gary Neville believes the England international is the player who has the biggest impact on his club in the English top flight.

“I think he’s had the biggest impact on a club. It’s just his enthusiasm. We have done Friday night football five, six years while he was at Leicester and he is brilliant to have around, great to come into the interviews,” the former Man United star said.

“You can imagine him in the changing room, they just got to keep him fit, keep him buzzing and keep feeding him because he is so influential.”

Gary Neville has long been an outspoken voice about all things football and politics, and his latest gambit may well annoy Man City supporters.

The former Man United right-back, to his credit, has never held back on his condemnation of the way his former club is run, so anyone suggesting that Neville has an agenda against their cross-city rivals is barking up the wrong tree.

Given his allegiance, and that he has never held back in his compliments on the way in which City have been run and how their team under Pep Guardiola has redefined the way we think about football, he should be lauded for his honesty.

Though he’s an acquired taste for some, Neville’s voice is still one that gets heard above all the other ‘noise.’ Not frightened of voicing an opinion and being able to back it up, when he speaks people listen.

During a Q&A on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday, he posted some quick fire answers to questions from some of his followers.

User @MarkyDub asked him who will win the (Premier) league, and his response was a bold one.

His one word ‘Arsenal’ answer didn’t have any other context attached, but he clearly believes that the north Londoners can go one better than they did last year when City overhauled them in the final weeks of the campaign.

When Andre Onana saved a last-kick-of-the-game penalty against Copenhagen in the Champions League this week, it was a redemption of sorts for the Man United goalkeeper.

A handful of high-profile and embarrassing errors had seen Erik ten Hag’s judgment called into question, so his magnificent save will have reversed the narrative a little.

The Dutch manager has put his hat on a player that worked with him at Ajax doing the business at Old Trafford, for he can ill afford another Donny van de Beek situation.

Though van de Beek was actually signed by Ole Gunnar Solskjaer, the manager hasn’t been able to get a tune out of a player who ran the show for him during their Ajax days.

That potentially hints at an issue with the manager’s motivational and man-management skills, though in any event, it’s on the players themselves to produce the goods week in and week out – something that should be a pre-requisite if you’re representing the club.

Nothing less than 100 percent was acceptable in Neville’s day, and it’s fairly clear from his general insouciance that the former right-back isn’t too enthused by certain things and certain people at the club.

During a Q&A on X (formerly Twitter), user @MichaelNorswor5 asked Neville – ‘What do you think of our new keeper?’

His shrugging emoji response, together with the words ‘for now,’ would suggest that he isn’t too enamoured by what he’s seen so far.
