GARY NEVILLE raged at Jamie Carragher after the Liverpool legend mocked him during Manchester United’s 7-0 defeat at Anfield.
The Reds handed Erik ten Hag’s side an astonishing thrashing on Sunday afternoon as Cody Gakpo, Darwin Nunez and Mohamed Salah all helped themselves to braces, before Roberto Firmino added a seventh.
It was an incredible second-half collapse from the Red Devils as they conceded six goals in 38 minutes.
And Carragher was not going to let his side’s biggest ever win over Man Utd go by without comment.
Reacting to the remarkable scoreline on Sky Sports’ coverage, Neville said: “You might lose 2-0, you might lose 2-1, you might lose 3-0, but you DO NOT lose 7-0 here. You just don’t”.
Poking fun, Carragher hilariously responded: “You do today”.

An upset Neville then replied to his colleague’s jibe by simply saying: “Do one”.
During the second-half mauling, Carragher also shared a picture from the commentary gantry.
It showed him grinning from ear to ear as a grumpy Neville looked on unimpressed.
The result sees Liverpool move to within three points of fourth-place Tottenham with a game in hand.
