Jamie Carragher & Gary Neville hand out the MNF season awards! 👀🏆 

In recognition for his services to the Gary Neville Podcast

"I didn't think about it at all" - yeah Gary, clearly

Most appearances on the Gary Neville Podcast award

He's certainly earned it this year

I have to agree with you, no one Gary Nevilles to the level that Gary Neville Gary Nevilles.

Villa didn’t accept Gerrard from the start

Emery is bottling it slowly

@@arjanndoj4444ur a fraud

@@lsr3794 there was only one way villa was going under Gerrard and that's unfortunately down , I think most of the players never took to him

@@arjanndoj4444 if that's bottling it I will take it , give Emery a couple more transfer windows and who knows

It’s generally far harder to be creative than defensive, to invent than simply stop. So forwards - who generally make and create more goals that win games - deserve more adulation

Far easier to compare attackers as you can watch them solely to understand how good they are. Defensive players have a unit supporting them. You can set up a system like arsenal do to protect the defence but you cant have a system that allows a player to ping perfect passes to create chances.

Well said

​@@NawtystepRodri contributes a LOT on the ball too, though

Rodri has more goal contributions than odeegard

instead they say they’ve over performed, absolutely ridiculous.

@@ga1917why is that ridiculous? Did you expect Villa to be in the UCL places? Realistically, come on…

@@christophers4415 No, but I wouldn’t have bet against it. In the last 22 games of last season (the time he was at Villa) they were the third best performing team last year

@@christophers4415 No I didn’t, I thought it was ridiculous how they didn’t mention their success but to mention that they’ve “over performed” with a world class manager. Watkins has been one of the best if not the best player this season, Unai Emery made average players good and they’ll most likely finish in the top 4 after being in the relegation zone before he took over. It’s top 6 clubs bias written all over it.

@@ga1917 after all that you still described over performing… it is what it is, don’t worry about it. If you’re a Villa fan enjoy it while you can

All that for nothing 😂.

He's an incredible player. Every inch of potential is being realized, remember him being signed a decade ago nearly. He's very down to Earth to ride that attention and stay nose-down as he has and made smart decisions in his career. They've been needing a playmaker like this since Cazorla and Ozil left.

It's what sets him apart from Bruno, who is almost useless in the first phase

Very true. I don't agree with him being player of the season but fair play to him for wanting to leave City/Pep and get game time elsewhere

Still not convinced Palmer is going to keep up his form but class player

@@joeb6705same I think he’s just having a one off season, pep don’t let players go so easy unless he doesn’t want them

We have to bear in mind FFP, with a home grown player it’s 100% profit. Ridiculous rule but that’s what we’re working with

And also we have to bear in mind that Poch has always been very good with both coaching and managing young players. He needs more credit for that

Was Arteta the best coach last season? No one though Arsenal would be first almost all season also...

Everyone was saying arsenal challenging was a fluke and they will drop out the top 4 so

When Emery was at arsenal, he couldn’t even finish in the champions league positions. Look at what Arteta is doing

It’s a lot easier to coach for 4th than it is to coach for 1st especially if your competition is pep and Klopp. Arsenal have not lost a game to city or Liverpool. Not lost to any of the big 6. Many other reasons. To turn this Arsenal that use to be soft into the best defense … that alone is a top coaching performance.

Lol. Did you see the top four predictions of most pundits and your fave podcasters? Nobody gave Arteta and this Arsenal team a chance.

Deffo

Wdym not a traditional top 4 club lol, that is a ridiculous attitude. The “traditional top 4” is long gone, Chelsea spent most of the season in the lower half of the league, Man United are a bunch of bin men, the only ‘traditional’ teams that were competitive is Liverpool and Arsenal’s

😅

So overlooked, last month in the overlap fan questions they both said they would take Toney to the euros over him

esp. that none of his goals were penalties!

Their boyfriends

​@@loopvil369He's the best player in the league...watch arsenal this season he's every where. He is a playmaker💪

​@okonkwohushbaby6307 Odegaard is not even the best player in the league at his position, let alone the entire league

No Rodri though, I Know one plaeyr but he's their most important player

@@CrizzleX nah villa outplaying city is way more impressive for several reasons....1. it's villa 2. Outplaying city when no team has done that (apart from prime Liverpool) 3. Not letting city score could be down to luck.

Liverpool did

​@CrizzleX parking the bus to get a draw isn't a "great coaching performance" if you're arsenal. That villa performance was one of a kind. No one has ever played peps city off the park like that

Liverpool battered city in the second half at Anfield.

Saliba? Micky VDV has been more impactful

Tell Micky VDV to get to the levels of Saliba

Saliba’s not even arsenal’s best cb let alone the league’s

overrated

@@user-mw3fp7qf1wHe is the best cb in the league

world class managers win league titles and UCLs, emery is a cup manager

@@TruRedCRIMEwdym he won Ligue 1 with PSG

World Class manager did well at Arsenal haha, you’re a burger mate

They've spent a lot of money too, and have the sixth highest wage budget in the league. They're not the fairytale story the media paints them

@@ChronicTheHempHog-mf3nhlol

Agreed when it comes to our attacking play he is our most important player he links up everything and it all goes through him most the time. He works hard defensively too and organising our team back into shape. Every time I watch him play he’s so smooth and mesmerising to watch I feel like his numbers this season don’t portray how good he has actually been

Because it's the Arsenal thing

Odegaard is the spark and spine of our team, runs his socks off every game. Always gives everything for the badge and manager and ive not even mentioned the world class abilities he has yet. His dribbling is genuinely the best in the league this season, cant get the ball off him with his tight control, passing whether it be a long ball, curling through pass or driven ground pinged pass he is a master in. Picking up on players around him he positions himself open for a pass and escapes any press with ease, always tracks back and has solid defensive capabilities for a cam/cm. Leads our players and they all clearly look to him, leads the fans and bigs us up and makes sure the fans support the team when we need it. If every single player has their head down he is the one they all look to and he never has his head down, turns games around for us and gets us back in the game when everyone else gives up. Its crazy because his stats arent actually as good as last season, we all know he can shoot but he has much leas goals than last season, now he was immense last season but as gary basically said, he is WORLD CLASS this season and improved even more from last season keeping us ticking and every team we play knows he is the danger man he can run at you and play a crazy pass in an instant. He is still only 25 we are very lucky we have such a player. He deserves more credit genuinely anyone who has watched arsenal all season knows he is just next level.

@@Slim2Flo He was better last season though

It’s a good point Neville said. If you think about it, what more could you want from odegaard, he works harder than anyone I’ve seen, he controls the game, does perfect passes and gets goals too. He’s better than debruyne and that’s because debryne is actually quite lazy, talented but he doesn’t do anything defensively that odegaard does. Odegaard leads a press and sets the standards for the team defensively

Nobody puts Wee Joe in the corner

against spurs as well, pure drama

Poch's Chelsea have been chaotic both for good and bad

Defensive Players aren’t rated by the media sadly

Nobody cares about defensive players sadly, Rodri and Saliba are probably the top 2 but ofc they’ll get overlooked

Because he’s the best player in the world

Sadly hes not media darling. Van dijk is a media darling. Some people r just lucky.

City undefeated when he plays...that is mvp calibre right there

That’s cos his the most important they don’t have a replacement

Well there is no 'correct' answer is there, considering it's a subjective opinion not a factual either or.

@@delboy013 I wasn't being literal.

Haha looking like blue man group

Nice....

@@kryswalters7809 Great.. Realllly Great.

Well he definitely isn’t crap Brighton overachieved last season that’s the problem

They came 10th and still might finish 9th above West Ham with a much smaller budget. What were you expecting them to do this season??

@@XBR4Da European spots at least

@@Discombobulate453 so you are expecting them to be beating United, Chelsea, West Ham and Newcastle who finished above them, even though their squads cost 2x/4x times as much (5x times as much in Chelsea's case). That's ridiculous.

Their squad is not good, and on top of that they have had huge injury problems. I think they might be making a mistake in not resigning him

The glazing on Mainoo is crazy

@zangrat This Utd team has been awful but he has had games where he has defo caught the eye you can't argue that mate

Flava Flav was good for about 3 games got hyped up and now fallen off. Not being coached properly either to kick on.

@gunnerman9511 Does he go to the Euros with England, Yes or No🤔

@@darnellwilliams2467 no

well he hasn't been world class "for years" so you've been factually incorrect for a lot of that time

Our best player but not by far. Saliba Gabriel White are close. And Partey when he is fit is a unicorn.

Hes not even world class.

@@Cosmic-WandererHe’s def world class rn

@@GoGetYourShinebox no hes not haha. There are very few world class players about and hes certainly not in that category. In the Prem its De Bruyne, Rodri, Salah, Alisson an maybe Virg but hes been poor lately. Then in the world id say couple of Madrid players(Mbappe also), maybe 1-2 from Bayern and thats it. Everybody else is pony. Pony though.

He’s got the iq level of a brick

To be fair he runs about ten business hotels etc employing thousands of staff, Has a family, kids and also has to polish the ridiculous amount of medals he won at utd. So give him a break

@@conversekid204 Gary?

Because he’s thicker than a gherkins foreskin

@@conversekid204 Loooool

Too true! Blinkered by the money and appallingly biased.

The big six teams play under the most pressure. There's an expectation to win most weeks which is why they get the awards

Villa, Bournemouth, Dyche, kudus - not big 6 mate.

Yeah you’re right we should really celebrate the players who helped their sides to a bottom half finish 🎉 🙏

What? The best players play for the best teams?! I don’t believe it! I just can’t get my head around it!

Rodri is 5x better

@@ALIENGOATMESSI different position ma son

@@eddouglas you gave birth to an alien goat?

@@Matthew-bu7fg what

Rice is a triffic player and a great lad. Roy Redknapp

And the 5-0 was entertaining too

Maybe but chelsea battered arsenal 6 to 0 ​@AmeerArsenalPetersen

@@AmeerArsenalPetersen Can see arsenal beating top clubs like that. HAHAHAHA

I actually have no idea how he isn't the best player this season? Makes no sense, he's been better than both Foden and odegaard

Rodri is the best player in that team and not Foden

Foden has been brilliant individual moments but he isn't the heart of city, that is KDB and Rodri. For Arsenal it's Odegaard and Rice

Solely because of foden?

​@@nawazshah5620Foden is young he can't jump over Rodri or KDB but this season everything about City is him, City has not been their best but Foden seems to pull up and even get 1st goals or equalizing goals to put City in games, Rodri is important because of his ability to control games but when Gundo is gone, KDB is injured and Haaland not in a good form and Foden to step up is incredible. Many will say is City team but City has not got fully fit squad and a time to fill someone like KDB shoes to lead the attack who would have thought of Foden.

Fess up...Marcus...this is you isn't it?!

You got me 😂😂

Ha ha good one

I think it seems like a mistake when they only got 40 Million, and they still have players like Doku getting time. Surely don't buy Doku and keep Palmer in hindsight?

@@williamdavies5957 Once again, he desperately wanted to keep Palmer. Palmer forced himself out of the club. similar thing happened with Foden. He was eased in despite new players being brought in. Palmer didn't want to be patient like Foden. In hindsight, we can say that 40 million is very low but who would've paid more for him at the time?

He is straight out of a laboratory with that pace and stature

Isak embarrassed him 🤣

Didn't watch the Newcastle v Spurs game then did you? 😂

@@Mallarkey I did but one game doesn’t change a season. Every team, every player has poor performances but consistency through the season, he has been excellent.

Spurs have conceded more than Everton - Spurs defence is not doing their main job, keeping the ball out of the net!

Did they actually?! 😂

i usually find them spot on tbf, all about opinions

Not really, an argument can be made for a few players in each category.

It's hindsight, and please don't think for a moment Pep wouldn't want Palmer back. Fact is even City are capable of making these decisions because the quality at so many positions. Doesn't mean they can't miss on things, and Palmer has pretty much single handidly kept Chelsea now fighting for Europe.

Well Palmer is one player. Football isn't won via one player unless its Messi or something.

Theres not a single player capable of making their club achieve anything over Man City

Come back in two to three years time and you will have a different response when Palmer helps Chelsea win the league over city.

Bro City are that good that they can let go of almost any player and you will hardly notice a drop off. They let go off Mahrez and Gundogan and they are still on the verge of doing a double. So that's not a knock on Palmer, it's just that Pep is a freak of a manager

Jackson got a hat trick that game 😅

thats fair i also think city needs to start looking at their acadmy players closely cuz last season lavia this season palmer their academy is really elite atm

He’s been well ahead of Foden. City have fallen apart when he hasn’t played. 16 goal contributions from DM, as well as controlling games and the way City play. Unbeaten in 60 games. It’s just English bias. Son has the same stats as Watkins but doesn’t get a mention. Salah hasn’t been great but has similar stats as well. Pickford over Raya says it all lol. And Dyche is somehow a genius for keeping Everton barely in the division, when previous managers were sacked for having them in that position. MacAllister has been really good as well, as good as Rice. But not English enough to get a mention. Also cost a quarter of what Rice cost, so obviously a better signing.

Rodri was out very much of the season

@@marwanhisham233 Yeah, and whenever he was out, City dropped points. He played 31 league games I think.

Both Gary and Carra are worth their salt when it comes to being analysts in my opinion.

I can’t remember a time when the pundits weren’t clutching at their tinkles while blabbing on about Liverpool this, Man Utd that, Chelsea the other, ever since the early 90’s as far back as I can remember, and now that the original big 4 or so are spread out over the league they never give the other teams the credit or air time they deserve

Pal Villa have made 4th place for the first time in how many years. What are you talking about?

He's been great but half those goals are pens while foden has none. I'd say foden and Watkins ahead of Palmer.

@@MrGameControler those “pens” have been last min goals and game winning goals. Spare me this bullshit, his created more chances than foden and Watkins combined

@@MrGameControlerwhat about Isak?

⁠@@ultimategamer8330and he was the vocal point of that team, foden actually has to share the ball. So please please spare me the bs

@@ultimategamer8330 Bro owned that MrGameControler with that statistic

Lmao take off your villa contact lenses

No it shouldn't. There are players that are quality that don't play for top teams

@@peterplumb9725 more easier to stand out in a team with lesser quality players and no real pressure to perform. This is why so many players have joined barcelona, madrid for big money and failed.

​@@applenutsyeah, you maybe right, he's looked average at city, even grealish was compared to Messi at Aston villa only to go to city and score a meager 8 goals in 3 years after scoring 17 goals and 10 assists in his final year at villa

​@applenuts I get the logic, but NO chelsea player has stood out the last 4 years like Palmer has. Mount , Havertz etc haven't got close to this output ....

Its never the managers fault when pep is involved, when Mourinho let Salah and KDB go he got blamed left and right.

@@1987benhur there’s no way we’re comparing two of the best prem players of all time with Cole palmer who’s had 1 season 😂😂😂😂😂

⁠@@1987benhurhe got blamed AFTER they performed well in the years that followed, people were upset at Kevin's sale but they understood at the time (Oscar, Hazard, Willian were already first choices and were performing at a high level, there was hardly a place for Kevin at that specific time and he wanted to play regularly) and Mo was awful at Chelsea and rightly shipped off, people that blame Mourinho are also looking at it in hindsight, just like Neville was doing

@@averagebeetle So how is this different? Palmer didnt play like this when he was at city, he was a decent player but not this. So now pep is being blamed AFTER Palmer plays like this. Sure no one batted an eye when they let KDb and Mo left because of who chelsea had already but City in basically in the same position as well since they have Foden KDB Silva as 1st picks.

@@Football_Advanced Where did i compare KDB and Salah to Palmer? Im comparing the situation not the players

😂

Chelsea are not underachieving that much tbh

Best player foden

To be fair he's been quite poor this season. It's only the last few games where he's shown an elite ability.

He is without a doubt city’s weak link….

@@ryantarrant1982😐

Van de Ven should be in there.

@@davidcohen7711 not even remotely true. He's been fine for the majority for the season, nowhere near poor.

Liverpool overacheivers?

How are liverpool overachievers lol, they are always in the title race look at the last 7 years

Liverpools team is not as good as people think. How many of their team actually gets into Arsenals or City's, and that's before you talk about their injuries and Salah leaving for AFCON and poor form after coming back. For me the fact they lasted so long in the title hunt is a huge achievement

​@@XBR4Dano excuse as a traditional top 6 team. Everytime they make so much noise but when they fail they try force us to believe it's expected

Liverpool had 10 of 11 starting players out for a decent period after Christmas, key key players like alisson, Trent, jota and salah missing key chunks of the season. all things considered after the previous season I’d say they did alright

Isak

Correct. Rodri is on another planet. And there are other CMs who have easily matched or bettered Rice. MacAllister, Bruno Guimaraes, Palhinha etc. The fact Jorginho has had to come in at DM to control games shows how limited Rice is.

this month alone I heard 10 variations of this story... nobody of us really knows what happened

So you’re saying Sadio Mane is the greatest footballer in the world?

Overachieving doesn’t mean it’s undeserved

@@masonknowsball66 no but idk how to explain it. They haven't over achieved, the games they won they deserved the wins, and the points. Most people expected villa to be top 6. They have a good squad, good manager, ended the season well last year. Maybe over achieved from 2 positions but you know

@@XJokermanX Palace? They’re currently in 12th and they finished 11th last season and 12th the season before that. They’ve improved massively the last couple months but to say they’ve overachieved over the entire course of the season is objectively wrong

Forest fan lmao

Cracking player is Odegaard. Who is your pick?

Odegaard clearly is arsenals most important player. Their success / rise directly coincides with Odegaards signing and game play.

Odegaard 1000%. Much better footballer than the rest this season, ridiculously good

Is Watkins really a 'young' player though? He's 28.

Palmer wanted a loan though, City pushed for a sale.

@@1987benhur thats the club tho and you cant blame them thats pure profit looks good on the books

@@DeterminedFC Pep has a say though. Front office doesnt work without his approval

@@simonoliver8576 Not really, the media usually lets pep get away with a lot of things for some reason. Mourinho was in the same situation with KDB and Salah and he got dragged all over the floor so Neville is being fair in saying pep made a mistake. Not saying Palmer is on the same level as Mo or KDB but it is a similar scenario.

@@1987benhur fair enough then m8 but is it not fair of me to say that they aint really missed him tho cole palmer because as I said they are still the top scorers in the prem and on to win a double🤔 if they didnt have quality players in them positions then maybe they would not of sold him they cant all play can they and re the mourinho thing I think its easy to say he made a mistake with de bruyne and salah years later yes its a similar situation I dont agree with the criticism mourinho got for that either tho but some people might disagree with me its only opinions m8 whether its me or you or gary neville essentially nobody is correct really 🤔
