Gary Neville has insisted that Manchester United should jump at the chance to sign Harry Kane if the opportunity ever arose - but has accepted that it won't happen anytime soon.

Gary Neville believes Arsenal's playing of the rules has come back to haunt them with the Gunners almost certain to miss out on Champions League football.Following Monday evening's (May 16th) 2-0 loss to Newcastle, the north London side sit two points behind Tottenham ahead of Sunday's Premier League finale. Arsenal did hold a four-point buffer over their arch-rivals, but back-to defeats have seen Champions League qualification slip between their fingers.To join the European elite, the Gunners are now banking on typical Spurs to bottle it once again on the big occasion.

Neville and Carragher made an appearance covering a less familiar sport. The duo joined presenter Di Stewart on the sofa ahead of Leeds Rhinos' narrow victory over Severn Stars.Neville showed off his impressive knowledge of netball, with sister Tracey representing England as a player before leading them as a coach to the gold medal at the 2018 Commonwealth Games.

Wayne Rooney has admitted his wife Coleen Rooney gave him no warning of her now infamous Wagatha Christie Instagram post, as he took to the stand during her libel trial. Coleen's fellow WAG, Rebekah Vardy, is suing for libel, after the wife of Wayne Rooney accused her Instagram account of being linked to stories leaking to the press back in 2019. Whilst giving evidence in court, Wayne, 36, described his wife as an ‘independent woman’ who ‘does her own’ thing, and revealed that Coleen, also 36, did not give him a heads up in 2019, before the controversial post.

Sky Sports pundits Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher reflected on their pre-season predictions following Monday night's Premier League clash between Newcastle United and Arsenal at St James' Park.

Newcastle dealt a major blow to Arsenal's hopes of Champions League qualification.Eddie Howe's side won their final home game of the season 2-0 to leave Mikel Arteta's men two points adrift of the top four with one game to go. The result had St James' Park bouncing and two famous faces were caught by the cameras as the Geordie TV duo celebrated.One fan who snapped them with massive grins on their faces poked fun at the Gunners with an I'm a Celebrity...

Newcastle hosted Arsenal in a crucial Premier League clash.The striker was making his first start in the top-flight since late December, having spent the past four months sidelined with a calf injury. Wilson captained the Magpies at St James Park, leading the line for Eddie Howe's side against the Gunners.And he put his body on the line to help the hosts to get themselves well on top in the game, which Arsenal needed to win to keep their top four hopes alive.

Gary Neville branded Arsenal's Rob Holding a "little boy" after the defender was sent off in the Gunners damaging 3-0 North London derby defeat to Tottenham.Holding received his marching orders with just 33 minutes on the clock at the Tottenham Hotspur Stadium as the defender was run ragged by Spurs striker Son Heung-min. Having already been cautioned following a third foul on Korean, Holding was then sent for an early bath after a cyclical block on the Tottenham forward.The red card effectively extinguished all hopes Mikel Arteta's men harboured of mounting a comeback after Harry Kane had put the home side in front from the spot. And it's fair to say a disbelieving Neville was left less than impressed by Holding's reckless play.‘"What is he doing? What is he doing?! Oh my goodness," blasted Neville while commentating on the game for Sky Sports.

Tottenham Hotspur striker Robbie Keane says Son Heung-Min is "one of the best players we have ever seen in the Premier League" and insists the South Korean doesn't get the credit he deserves.The Irishman, who made over 300 appearances for the north London club across two spells, suggested that if Son played for Real Madrid or Barcelona he'd be talked about in the 'top bracket'."For me, honestly, I think he is one of the best players we have ever seen in the Premier League. I don’t think he gets the respect that he should get," Keane said ahead of Tottenham's clash with Arsenal on Thursday night."I never hear people speaking about him like the big teams when they are being mentioned, like the Real Madrid’s and the Barcelona’s of this world."Some of the goals that he scores, Harry [Kane] is making him a better player.

Newcastle United due to his mind-boggling wage demands. The disfavored Manchester United ace, 29, will depart Old Trafford on a free transfer after failing to make a 90-minute showing this season.

Whenever Manchester United encounter a turbulent period of form, references associated with the past tend to emerge at Old Trafford. A countless number of ex-players who now work in the media regularly refer back to their own experiences during their playing days when analysing problems at the club.
