‘It really f***s me off’ – Man Utd legend Gary Neville fumes at ex-Premier League rival for ‘slagging me off every week’


GARY NEVILLE has labelled Gabby Agbonlahor as a “cheeky b*****d” after being annoyed by some of the former Aston Villa star’s comments.

The pair played against each other regularly during their playing days when Manchester United would face the Villans.

And Neville’s thoughts on the now-talkSPORT pundit came to light during a recording of The Overlap podcast.

Red Devils legend Roy Keane had joked that Agbonlahor was Neville’s toughest opponent and it set the former England international on his way.

He said: “He slags me off every week on that radio show.

“They tag me on Twitter and it really f***s me off, honestly.”

But what annoyed Neville the most is the notion made by the retired striker that he would enjoy playing against him.

Neville added: “He will be asked who was the player that you’d like to play against most and he’ll go, ‘You know what? It was Gary Neville at Manchester United’.

“You cheeky b*****d. You didn’t win one against us in 25 years!”

The crowd enjoyed the response from Neville during the live recording in Dublin.

Agbonlahor has ruffled a few feathers since taking on his new role, including Liverpool manager Jurgen Klopp.

The German manager hit out at comments made by the pundit suggesting Erik ten Hag should have quit Man Utd after the 4-0 loss to Brentford back in August.

Agbonlahor also got on the wrong side of Gary’s brother, Phil Neville, after he claimed the England squad was divided and not a team.

However, neither were ever in the England squad at the same time with Phil’s last call up in 2006 and Agbonlahor’s first in 2007.
