Could listen to Gary for ages
I think him and Carra work well together.. i find listening to them on there own starts to annoy me, Gary squeaky voice, and Carra that noise he makes before every sentance-- least when they are together it breaks up the noises
If United didn't want him he would've played for any of those teams for money just like he's doing now.
@@nigget-tv-videos4135 actually I prefer these one on ones. They seem to let their guard down a bit more compared to the studio which I think grts a bit repetetive and stiff after a while. These chats are getting pretty interesting hearing about the little details on players, contract dealings, training etc during their careers, especially if you grew up in that era. Would love to hear more anecdotes on some more of what went on inside those fergie years.
Your easly pleased 😌
Slot a 2 pound coin inbetween his eye brows and he'll start talking football... Just so you know how to get him going.
There’s no one in football that I think I could listen to for 40 minutes and still want more. I find it fascinating listening to someone who was a huge part of the most dominating team in premier league history at, in my opinion, the greatest period in the leagues history.
Giggsy is a great listen aswell.
Yeah,i thought to listen for few minutes, but now at 25' still listening..
Get his slosh out ur mouth Jesus.
Casual
No cl thou
All these comments saying “we didn’t want you” no offers came in for you” have very short term memories.. he is one the best most consistent RBs England and the premier league has ever seen yes certain players may have had a better season then Neville but for absolute consistently for over a decade nobody comes close to Neville and I’m a Newcastle fan who hates Man Utd and especially Neville and Roy Keane but your Beckhams and Ronaldos of this world would of been exposed without a Neville behind them to defend and overlap to create space for them
I’d take the counsel of Sir Alex Ferguson over some people commenting on a RUclips video.
I fully agree, he's a good defender.
I support Manchester United and would rather have Wan Bissaker but Neville was good, a long term replacement for Paul Parker
@@jamiesimms7084 neville could cross a ball, bissaka isn't there yet. Neville head and shoulders above bissaka. Come back in ten or 15 years and we can properly discuss this
@@aarononeill3 I don't need to come back in any amount of years. I like Neville but would prefer Wan Bissaker even though he still has to prove himself through time. I'm fully aware of Gary Neville's credentials thank you very much as I am aware of Wan Bissaker's, whose forward play isn't as bad as some would make you believe. I believe he is/will be the best right back in Manchester United's history. Yes I said it. Unless you call Cristiano a full back or you're including Duncan Edwards.
I'm also going to go out on a limb and say Bruno will have the impact and allure of Cantona with the style, formidability and effort of Robson and an influence similar to both.
Neville was a hard working player in a great team. He didn't have much ability he just had a strong work ethic and always gave 100%. He definitely wasn't the best right back in the premier league. And before anyone says I'm a Man Utd supporter
I know Gary can poke fun of himself because he's achieved everything he could have in club football, but there are many younger folks that have not seen him play. He was exceptionally consistent at a high enough level. He had all round good technique in all departments, defending, throw-ins, crossing, and reading the game. People especially forget how decent he was at crossing because Beckham in front of him. He was tenacious, hardworking, and a leader. Bravo to you Gary for being so humble.
@@RealistGunner litteraly has no correlation to his comment
@@RealistGunner which litteraly has no correlation to his comment
@@RealistGunner the point isn't about stating facts. Everyone knows ashley Cole was better than Gary. That's a simple fact.
The point is there was litteraly no reason for you to mention it. It shows your insecurity of yourself about your club to mention an arsenal player in a video about Gary. If anything, you're incompetent for not understanding your comment has zero correlation to his
@@RealistGunner and I can state facts too btw, you're 9th
Gary wasn’t even a left back he was a right back
Imagine playing for the club you grow up loving, winning everything in sight and having any reason to move on 🤷♀️
Beckham went on to play for Real Madrid, AC Milan, PSG and LA Galaxy .. With all that experience, he now owns his own football club that he has built from scratch in one of the most prestigious regions in the world .. i would say thats a fairly good reason
@@JackLawrence20 prestigious? Salford is more prestigious than Miami
Rudy Funk har har har, that is so funny, har har har
@@JackLawrence20 I'm not joking lol
That's why Ronaldo will never be a true red. People say you have to switch clubs to prove yourself. That's so wrong football is about loyalty. You don't need to switch your nation to prove yourself in another country's national team. Since then I always have supported Messi and I wish he played for us.
i think Gary has always acknowledged that what he lacked in talent, he made up for in hardwork, a strong winning mentality, tactical astuteness and passion for the club. People overlook these factors, but you can tell from the way he speaks, that he was crucial in that United dressing room, and fundamental to the club's success during their heyday.
All the traits needed to be a great manager.
@@shanginadildo Not necessarily for a manager per se, but it was crucial for Manchester United's peak trophy winning period as a player and part of the squad in my opinion.
Liverpool fan, from Liverpool. Always begrudgingly respected Ferguson's United. No begrudging when it comes to Neville. Love hearing him talk. 👍 Proper football man.
Who cares?
@@sratus Well, apparently you care enough to comment. Does that answer your ridiculous question?
Found a new word to use🤣
@@alexpaylor1365 very well said.
As a Newcastle fan you can tell now when he looks at our club he feels the same level of disgust as we do... Carra doesn't get it but Neville always has, he looked at us once and saw what a great club we could be, likewise with Villa, it's a shame we both find ourselves in the states we are now.
We both were big clubs, where did it all go wrong
@@FluxBrawlStars £ £ £ £ £ £ £
Dannyk2..pal if your club get a proper invester in a few years they could be right up there with us..the bitters and the bin dippers..its who you buy..you have great fans..good luck!👹
Carra has mentioned the fall of Liverpool during the 90s, it’s cyclical. If the foundation is in place and the support is there, it’s just a matter of when Newcastle rise again.
Newcastle can't compete and keep up with the big clubs in prem in terms financial standpoint. Once their golden era of Shearer ended they were never the same.
Gary has always been informative and honest. Even when he commentates on United games he is objective! Outstanding footballer and now Pundit / Personality.
Neville was an outstanding right back. He was very good defensively but he was also a really good attacking right back, which often gets overlooked because of the players he had operating in front of him on the right hand side. He formed a great partnership with David Beckham. Beckham would often look for the early cross. It was one touch (if that) and bang, on to the head of the striker and he also had Neville to overlap him and provide another option. Neville was actually a really good crosser of the ball too so when players looked to try to stop Beckham getting his signature cross in, Neville would be open and could deliver a great ball too.
When Ronaldo came in you really saw the best of Neville's work ethic and determination. Because Ronaldo would drift inside, particularly in his last few seasons at the club, and wouldn't track back as much, Neville had to effectively operate as a wing back, running up and down the touchline to provide a crossing threat and hurrying back to defend when they lost the ball.
There were a number of great right backs in world football during Neville's playing days and I'd put him right up there as one of the best. To this day I think he's the best right back of the Premier League era.
We only realised just how good he was after he retired. I would say we hadn’t replaced him properly until wan-bissaka joined last summer.
Give it a few years first for Bissaka. Easy to judge after one season. Remember Gary actually described Darmian as a better version of himself when he initially signed.That didn't quite work. Not actually his fault IMO he didnt get a good run at right back to prove himself and get momentum. But I do like Wan Bissaka, early signs are good.
Wes Brown did alright especially in 07/08, Rafael was pretty good there also.
@@Mad_Intalect Wes Brown 'did alright there' pretty much sums up Wes at his best. He was lucky to be at United so long. Fergie did always give the youth a lot of loyalty.
Geoff is actually a pretty underrated interviewer
I suppose he has a catchprase attributed to him
Pretty clueless when it comes to facts though
He thought Mahrez was brought to Man City from abroad for a start, completely forgetting he won the league with Leicester a season previous
Overrated comment.
As a Liverpool fan this has been the most intresting I just love the football gossips and past stories
Arsenal fan here, I feel the same! :-)
Absolutely mate, couldn’t agree more
Gary Neville was what you call a proper traditional full back. He was a defender who was able to attack , not just only attack like some other defenders. Take notes girl.
Note that you said “traditional”. The position has changed and evolved. Get with the times.
NormalDude apart from the attack part
@@advenco344 The position has changed but they still have to be defenders by trade. Fullbacks that cant defend will be the reason teams lose big games and big competitions in the long term.
Prabhu Liverpool have been fine with a supposed right back who can’t defend.
NormalDude AWB cannot attack to save his life, don’t even compare him to TAA. And no I’m not a Liverpool fan.
Good lad, humble and a real top player in his day. Well done for helping out the NHS too with your hotels
The way he says Manchester United makes me laugh ! Stretches out the Uniiiited !
Ive always picked up on this too. Manchester yaniiiiiitid
Yeah!!! 😂😂
Theo FC That my mate is what’s known as a Manc accent
Alan Shearer I’m from Manchester mate that accent is a bury accent
Theo FC I’m a Geordie mate I cannit tell the difference
Neville gets slagged off yer has won so much as a player who played most games so it’s not like he was a squad player he was captain ffs
@wildebest he wasn't but he is still playing week in week out
wildebest let’s not mess about he playin in the most successful team in England over the best part of 20 years if he wasn’t any good he woulda been gone fergie got rid of amazing players all the tile so if Gary wasn’t any good he would’ve been gone like his
Brother
Mark Hughes
Andrei kanchelskis
Paul ince
Lee sharpe
Steve Bruce
Gary pallister
Jaap staam
Ruud van nistelrooy
David beckam
Nicky butt
And so on
Does he get slagged off?
He was a good player
I'll never understand why english people never give these players any credit FFS and then any time any foreign average player comes to PL they suck him off typical english people behaviour guy played for 20 years as RB and probably top 5 in that time and people say oh he was ok
When Alex Ferguson kicked the boot at David Beckham eye, we saw that Beckham wasn't on the team sheet v Real madrid in 2003, I knew it was coming to an end. But then Cristiano Ronaldo came that 2003 summer and the rest is history.
I remember that being all over the media (as usual) and Becks sporting that stupid hair band to show off his war wound to the camera's.
@@pistonhedd Yep no doubt... But there were a lot of matches where Beckham was dropped.... I couldn't understand it at the time. But looking back now, do you remember Beckham jumping out of a challenge for England v Brazil 2002 World Cup which led to the equaliser... Beckham seemed to be more concerned about his brand than football it seemed. Alex Ferguson saw this and shot it down. When a player becomes bigger than the club Ferguson was done. Look at the problem Pogba is causing now because he's bigger than Man utd.
@die hard that would've been same story with ronaldo. He would have left on his prime to madrid.
Yeah, I remember us getting done by Arsenal in the FA Cup in early 2003, and Becks was at fault for one of the goals due to not tracking back in defence. Gaffer kicked a boot in anger afterwards.
@@masterj6926 Actually, Becks jumped out of that challenge against Brazil _only_ because he still wasn't 100% fit after his metatarsal foot injury.
One of the greatest rbs of all time
Lol not even close
He’s more than a rb he’s a leader. There wasn’t a player that gave more effort than he did.
You're talking off all time??? Hahaha I can think of plenty more off the top of my head he might have cared a lot but he didn't have any where near enough quality as the best of all time
He's very slow no good going forward if we are talking 50 best right backs of all time Gary Neville is not one of them
Thomas Kendell Name three rbs better than him I’ll wait
When you've got a Scouser (me) glued to Gary Neville talking then you know it's great content. The honesty is refreshing and some great insight. Always rated him as a top player, these Off Script videos he's done are brilliant. If you're a true fan of the game it's impossible to not be captivated by this kind of inside info delivered in an honest and humble fashion.
Great interview I was hooked throughout . Keep them coming skt and gary .
Very good questions from Geoff, loving these off script conversation, includes all the in depth information we crave as football fans
please for the love of god get Roy Keane on this! that would be unbelievable
I never ever thought that I would love and have so much respect for Gary Neville. I think he fully deserves a knighthood without a shadow of doubt.. Just my opinion and I cant stand United but have to give respect when due.
The Truth A knighthood?
I reckon he’d turn it down
You love him?
Gerrard got an MBE so I think Neville turned his cuz some but not all of the golden generation got an MBE offer that will one day become an obe or maybe I'm wrong and only gerrard got one cuz he was gerrard
MmmHmm definitely. He’s better than that.
We need more of these with Gary!
Whoever is here because of the title of the video, Gary starts talking about it at 39:29 and at 40:19 he specifically mentions those three clubs. LEGEND!
Spoiler🙄😁
Thx bro big help
@@righteouswarrior7621 what are you a sheep that you follow me blindly? :)
Mr reliable. Solid player and at his prime was one of the best RB in the world.
I agree. He was amongst the best due to his consistency and reliability. That was his strength
Lovin these 40min interviews !! They hv been a breath of fresh air during these difficult times
nev and carra should have there own weekly podcast on youtube by now for sure.....
DazzaMusic Neville has his own podcast on Spotify
100% I know there probably already busy travelling around with Sky but i would love to hear them talk to each other with out the cameras of sky to see if they act different
They both have their own podcasts
but done right with both men together on youtube with visual’s. imagine the guests they could get on and them running it means they ask the questions not sky....
saying that if they did one sky would be involved no doubt.
Gary never seems bored. He must be sometimes, but the guy is professional beyond belief.
Gary "to be fair" Neville. Love the guy
Let's be clear... hes a great pundit
I will say, I agree
Leeds fan here going soft, but every time I hear Gary speak I am impressed. Respect.
I know what you mean. Hated him as a player obviously and I hate his club but you can't help respect him and I like the fact he hates us
@Pat Mahon
That's how we like it
@Pat Mahon We wouldn't want it any other way.
@@LUFC123 I join in the singing "we all hate Leeds scum" and I'm a Leeds fan!
Pat Mahon lol rivalry is everything in football 😂
Brilliant. Very interesting interview. Keep them coming ❤️
Keep these videos coming, could listen to Gary talk all day
You need to get out more.
Great interviews these, thanks guys.
Really insightful view from a player's perspective on transfers. These offscripts with Gary Neville are class!
People are sleeping on the fact that this man is an absolute legend... there is nothing out there he hasn't won in club football several times... playing week in week out
I love these videos - really insightful!
Brilliant interview. Really enjoyed that one
More I watch these videos of Gary Neville, the more I respect him and it shows how much love a player can give to one club
I’ve gave him a fair about of stick over the years but as a player he was exceptional and as a person he conducts himself extraordinarily. Nothing but respect for him as a leeds fan, other then the whole hating Man U thing
Liverpool fan here and him not wanting to play for us or you makes me just respect him so much more that someone like Owen. Even tho he is a dirty Man U'er.
People need to put some respect on G.Nevs name
Keep these coming! Loving them so much!
Once we get back to normal PLEASE keep doing this hour long kinda informal chats, love em
Beckham says on his interview that he never wanted to leave United that he could have stayed forever
Anyone else remember singing this at old Trafford 😂 Gary Neville is a red, is a red, is a red, Gary Neville is a red he hates scousers!!!!
I still sing it lol
Holy crap... that one is old...
"Gary Neville shags his..." hmmm I must've been singing the wrong one!
@AVRO filmvideo what's a morron?
@AVRO filmvideo No.. Liverpool is scum.
Good to hear our legend again big up
Loving these vids. Keep em up👍🏽
As a lfc fan...I must say I respect gary for his honesty
I actually respect Gary nev great pundit
I could literally listen to G Nev all day. It's definitely a gift he has
Loved the bits on Veron and how United and the game progressed. Ferguson was truly brilliant at adapting and moving with the times.
G Nev is the perfect replacement if Gary Linekar ever leaves MOTD
I agree. BBC must have him on their shortlist of possible replacements. I don't think he would turn it down
Never thought about it but since uve said it
Leeds Fan here and 100 % thoroughly agree with that . Gary Neville is a great football analyst. Good shout
Very true you’ll never get a better midfield 4 then becks, Keano, scholes and Giggs. Loved listening to this nice one sky sports
Busquets xavi inesta
Tim Lehane that’s 3 I said 4 and none of them were around when we had them 4
Tim Lehane id take Keane over busquets and scholes is on par with xavi and iniesta to a point where they are both jealous of his passing
These are brilliant! Keep them coming.
Great interview. Love G.Nev. Legend of the game.
who needs Gary Neville when you’ve got Luke Ayling?
Exactly
LEATHER SANDALS would like to see Gary Neville hit a first time volley mid air as sweet as Ayling did and it smash in off the under side of the bar🤷🏼♂️
Plus he has the better hair 🥵
wildebest he’s about 60 lad
Who?
Gary's got some rose tinted glasses when he talks about "the Man Utd conveyor belt" - very few youngsters brought through by Ferguson lasted past 25-26, then they were generally moved on and replaced with better players.
Only really Gary, Giggs and Scholes who made it right through from youth team to retirement - even Rooney who was there a long time was bought from another club, rather than being "homegrown" by the Utd youth system.
Ferguson was ruthless in that way, using young players to give energy to the team, and plug gaps when better players were rested / injured - but the key players the team relied on to give the quality needed to win trophies were mainly bought in after developing and building a reputation elsewhere.
It would be more accurate to say there were 2 conveyor belts and when a player reached their mid 20s they were assessed for ability to hold down a starting place, and more often than not they were moved on and a better replacement was added to the second conveyor belt to run through to retirement / moving abroad in their early 30s.
You know what I hope you don't get grief for this comment because at first I didn't agree but I see what you mean and it's very true absolutely spot on assesment that, there maybe a few exceptions someone will mention but still very true.
I can see some might think it's a criticism of Ferguson but it's not - he won everything and always kept a route for youth team players to get game time.
Neville is one of the few who actually made it all the way, but if he really looks at some of those players that came through after him, he'll see very few established themselves the way he did - his experience wasn't shared by many during Ferguson's time.
I actually think it's one of his greatest strengths as a manager - he never let the hype about "developing young players", or sentiment for those players, stand in the way of building a successful team and he always knew when to move players on and bring in quality.
He used young players to keep a certain level of hunger and energy about his team, but he always knew their limits and exactly how far they could take him on hunger and energy alone - and could see when those with more limited abilities were getting too old to offer the attributes he valued / needed in his squad.
What fascinating and enjoyable insights into the club I’ve supported all my life and from the era I loved the most. As an adult I now completely understand why Gary was such an integral part of that dominant Utd side on and off the pitch. Quality watch. 👍🏻👊🏻 UTID! ♥️⚪️⚫️
Amazing insight to football, management , players and UTD.
What an amazing career, thank you.
does Geoff live inside a branch of Waterstones?
David’s words were “I’ve got talks” remember it like it was yesterday
as a leeds fan i must admit to feeling slightly flattered that gary neville gives us a shout out.
he is a manc to his core and fair play to him.
we are ready to renew hostilities...
Really interesting insight from Gaz. Very enjoyable. 👊🏻
You are wrong Gary, you didn't have the best midfield of all times. The best midfield of all times was Eddie Gray, Johnny Giles, Billy Bremmner & Peter Lorimer.
Souness, Kennedy, McDermott and Case for me.
Gary don't know if you'll ever see this bro but ur a top man 4 giveing up ur hotel in this mad a this is from a souser repeced

Have a day off, we had Sun Jihai.

Loving these videos 🙏
This video was more like a chapter from an audiobook autobiography by Gazza. Keep them coming 👍👍
As a Bayern fan I actually wondered if he would've played for Bayern if he had to leave United and then he mentioned us - although I didn't really expect it haha.
Everyone forgets that when Neville broke through as a kid and played for England in Euro 96, he was touted as a new defensive global superstar.
Loved the Veron comments, makes so much sense now!
These are actually good content, keep it up !
Mr Neville was a worthy opponent to us. A true club player, Respect
I wouldn’t mind to have gary at arsenal. With ashley cole on the left gary at the right, it would be a pretty solid defence out wide
To be fair to Lauren he was a beast
Yeah but Gary wanted to win trophies though so arsenal was not ever an option haha
100% believe him... he hated lpool.... i just wished OWEN felt the same at playing for utd. Owen was all about himself to be fair, and will never have the hero status Nev, Stevie g, has for their respected clubs
Aye Absolutely,
Michael Owen Is Just A Traitor End Of Story,
Owen is a selfish shitbag. I'd love to be a fly on the wall next time him and Shearer are in the same room. See if the poison dwarf has anything to say about the toon then!!!
Always good value. Interesting guy.
Gary is the best pundit and has been for years - great video
38.45 for the question regarding the title of the video
There's no way Gary could have gotten away with going to Arsenal back then.
we had better right backs
Spurs fan here. Love Neville. Whenever you hear players pick their dream 11 he's never in it. (Ronaldo, Evra, etc . . . ) But when they talk about professionalism he's always mentioned. Massive respect Nevs . . .
that was the best one of these by a mile
GNev: crap curtains in the 90s, crap curtains in the 20s
