Agreed. He is absolutely dreadful as a pundit. Only being an ex-United player gets him the job. Keane is the same.

Dull derby display highlights Pep Guardiola and Man City's marked decline
The Manchester derby ended in a hugely disappointing 0-0 stalemate with City once again failing to spark
My first experience of them as kid was in the early 60’s, it was a friendly combined City/rag team vs some other team (can’t remember) at Maine Road in the scoreboard end. Bert was in goal and a crowd of rags in motorcycle leathers behind the goal giving it the heil hitler chants to Bert. Kicked off big time.
Something that might be worth thinking about with Neville is, and correct me if I'm wrong, but a lot of our recent games have been on BT Sports. So Neville is likely to have only really seen or commentated over our games against United, Liverpool, and Tottenham.
So even though we defended well against Liverpool and United, he's not going to acknowledge it. He'll only think about the first 20 minutes against Liverpool and he was being a real sourpuss against United. And even though we did well most of the time against Tottenham he'll only think about the 4-5 timesZidane Kane did anything rather than the whole match.
My point is, like everyone else he's ignorant to what's going on at City and that's what is carrying the narrative.
Ps He really ought to learn how to keep his emotions in check.

Even the pictures tell the story of how Sky want us portrayed. Shaking hands, togetherness for United with an elated Pogba celebrating a goal (must‘ve missed that one at the weekend) whilst City with their heads bowed, dejected and disjointed with Jesus left out in the cold, hands on hip, left to fend for himself.
Anybody would think that we were the home team that had to force the game. Well, at least Neville did. His frustrations were my glee.

He’s there to give his opinion on Cavani......it’s just no one has asked him yet!
Anyone see the Sheff Utd game on MOTD?
Commentator came out with stat that their start to the season was the 2nd worst start in the history of the top flight.
Then proceeded to show a table of the worst starts, guess which team was top of the lot and never so much as raised a mention, yep it's that istree team, the Rags :0D

I seem to see many pictures, statues, etc, of a guy who apparently never made a mistake, but is always shown nailed to a cross. Does that count?
Warnock on the Manchester derby, " A minute to talk about it is too long." Now while not a great game I remember loads of 0-0 games in the miseryside ones too. Also I'm sick of hearing they expected more from us. Sorry they play up the myth of the great Man United, they have spent hundreds of millions and were at home, I expect more from them.
