There’s a few of you who are gonna loathe what I’m about to say – tin helmet on and abuse moderation at the ready!
But were I to be holding a dinner party and it was a case of Jamie Carragher or Gary Neville at the table it would be the old scouser every time.
Yeah, I know his previous and at a personal level the gobbing incident, when a young girl was the sufferer, was awful but in terms of football, I’d have his company every time in preference to the gobby Manc.
There are many who believe him to be entirely anti-West Ham but his comments about Jarrod Bowen in particular on the Monday Night Football Show could hardly have been better.
He said: “Bowen, he has been a brilliant signing. He’s just one of those players, he always nicks a goal every three or four games, you just see him on the score sheet. And again he’s got a vital goal for them. He does really well on that right side coming inside and he’s been a great signing for them from the Championship.”
Ah, Fact check – unless their name is Roy Keane.
Cara is right – Bowen has been an amazing buy and has now notched five goals along with some superbly athletic performances.
I also enjoyed how he put down Neville who tried to argue over and over that every offside decision is based on about an inch.
He got more and more heated about it as the former Liverpool full-back boxed him into a corner and made him look entirely daft.
Not hard mind you!
