‘Not a blooming clue!’ – Man Utd fans tear into Gary Neville after pundit tipped win… before City’s derby demolition job
MANCHESTER UNITED legend Gary Neville has been lambasted online after predicting his former team would beat Manchester City.
Neville’s pre-match claim didn’t age well at all as United were thrashed 6-3 at the Etihad following hat-tricks by Erling Haaland and Phil Foden.
The star pundit shared a clip on his personal Twitter account taunting ex-City ace and fellow Sky Sports analyst Micah Richards telling him Pep Guardiola’s side were “getting done” before kick-off.
Neville said: “Well, I’ve just seen the teams here at the Etihad and this lot are getting done! They’re getting done.”
Richards warned: “Don’t count your chickens, Gary. You’ve done this many times with [Jamie] Carragher.”
However, Neville confidently responded: “My chickens have been counted.”

Fans flooded Neville’s comments section and didn’t hold back as they slammed his earlier words.

Another posted: “Listening to the Gary Neville commentary on Sky, he’s definitely holding back tears.”
