    ‘He could have done many things’ – Gary Neville reveals gym run-in with Liverpool star after brutal commentary insult

    MANCHESTER UNITED legend Gary Neville revealed he had an awkward run-in with ex-Liverpool goalkeeper Loris Karius shortly after slamming him with some brutal criticism.Karius, 31, spent six years at Anfield after his arrival from Mainz in 2016 but couldn’t establish himself as Jurgen Klopp’s No1 and that led to loan stints at Besiktas and Union Berlin before his exit.Manchester United legend Gary Neville had an awkward run-in with Loris KariusCredit: Youtube / The OverlapNeville slammed Karius after his performance with Liverpool in the Champions League finalCredit: PA:Press AssociationThe German’s time with the Merseysiders effectively came to an end after the 2018 Champions League final where two major howlers led to goals for Real Madrid who won 3-1 in Kiev.The former Newcastle keeper gave the ball away to Karim Benzema, who opened the scoring, and failed to hold on to a powerful shot by Gareth Bale.However, it was later revealed that the ex-Germany international was playing with a concussion after a collission with Real captain Sergio Ramos moments before Benzema’s opener.Nevertheless, Neville, 49, didn’t hold back on his criticism of Karius as he insisted Klopp’s side would never win the Premier League with him between the sticks – he seemingly didn’t know about the concussion.Read More on FootballA while later, though, the Sky Sports pundit bumped into the German in a gym while visiting Italy and feared an intense confrontation after his fiery assessment of his Champions League final performance.Instead, Karius showed immense class by simply shaking the ex-England international’s hand and greeted him with respect.That left the Man Utd hero with a red face as he immediately felt “guilty” and realised he was too harsh on the keeper.Neville told The Overlap: “Karius, the Liverpool goalkeeper, the young lad – I’ve been quite direct about him for a period of two to three months. Most read in FootballBEST FREE BET SIGN UP OFFERS FOR UK BOOKMAKERS”Liverpool were getting closer and better under Jurgen Klopp and I remember saying that they’ll never ever win the league with that guy in the net. “It’s a strong line that to a young goalkeeper. It was probably true in the element of about five months later he made the mistake in the Champions League final.Gary Neville hits out at ‘Moping’ Rashford and Garnacho and has heated argument with Micah Richards live on Sky Sports “I go to Italy to this hotel. I walked into the gym for a session and there was just this big bloke lifting massive weights – it’s Karius! “He could have done many things there and could have had a go at me. It went right through my head on what I said about him, and I know he would’ve known that. “But he shook my hand and said, ‘Nice to see you’ and I felt guilty bumping into someone I’ve given a harsh line to.”Liverpool splashed the cash for a new goalkeeper after the final and bought Alisson for a record £67million fee.The Brazilian helped the Reds win the Champions League in 2019 and their first Premier League title in 30 years in 2020.Karius is currently a free agent after two uneventful years at Newcastle where he amassed only two appearances.

    Ange Postecoglou tipped to keep to Tottenham second season promise ahead of crunch Man Utd clash in Carabao Cup

    STEPHEN CARR knows all about beating Manchester United in a big League Cup tie.Just over 26 years ago, defender Carr was part of the Tottenham team that stunned Sir Alex Ferguson’s soon-to-be Treble winners with a 3-1 quarter-final home win.Ange Postecoglou will try to navigate his Tottenham side past Manchester United in the Carabao CupCredit: GettyStephen Carr helped Spurs to a cup tie victory over the Red Devils in 1998Credit: GettyChris Armstrong (twice) and David Ginola scored against a weakened Red Devils — albeit one that included Ryan Giggs, Ole Gunnar Solskjaer and Teddy Sheringham.But it was a great Spurs cup night at the old stadium in an era with very few of them.Former right-back Carr, 48, told SunSport in association with William Hill: “Manchester United were very successful back then, but the League Cup wasn’t as important. Their eyes were on the treble.“So it was a great time to play them.”READ MORE ON FOOTBALLUnited were the last of the big guns left in the competition that season, so the draw opened up nicely for Tottenham.They took full advantage. After sneaking past Wimbledon in the semi-finals, 10-man Tottenham — following Justin Edinburgh’s red card — saw off Leicester at Wembley with Allan Nielsen’s late winner.But today, Ange Postecoglou’s Spurs are unlikely to have it that easy in the latter stages.They might have dumped out League Cup specialists Manchester City but Arsenal, Liverpool and Newcastle are waiting in the wings if they see off United.Most read in FootballCASINO SPECIAL – BEST CASINO WELCOME OFFERSYet Carr — who played every minute of that 1999 final — reckons Postecoglou can keep his second-season promise and lead Tottenham to a first trophy since 2008.He said: “They can definitely win the cup, but it’s a very strong line-up.Ange Postecoglou reacts to Tottenham’s 4-3 loss to Chelsea “People say the top teams don’t care about this competition — but there are some massive clubs still in there.“There’s no reason why Spurs can’t win it. Postecoglou said he always wins a trophy in his second season, so fingers crossed he does.“Tottenham can beat anybody on their day. They’re unbelievable, especially at home. If they play like we know they can, they can turn over Manchester United.“The problem is they’ve struggled getting back-to-back results.“They get an unbelievable result like against Manchester City and then one like Ipswich. They’re so up and down.”Carr spent 11 years at Tottenham from 1993 to 2004, when they finished between seventh and 15th.So the cups were often seen as a welcome break.During that 1998-1999 season, the 11 games Spurs won in the two domestic cups — they also reached the FA Cup semi-finals — was as many as they managed in the Premier League.And Carr reckons the cups could favour Spurs again this season, saying: “There’s a gap between cup games so out of all the teams left in the competition, cup football suits them most because they’re not as consistent.“The other big boys go on long winning runs, whereas Tottenham don’t.”During December, Spurs play nine times across three competitions.Along with the League Cup, they are in the Europa League — as well as challenging for the Prem’s top four.But Carr believes their 17-year trophy drought means this last-eight tie is the biggest of the lot.READ MORE SUN STORIESHe added: “It’ll be a big statement to beat Manchester United. They are starting to play now. It’s not the same team who were struggling under Erik ten Hag.“Going into the festive period, this is the most important game for Spurs. Fans would rather go to Wembley and win a trophy than get back into the Champions League.”Who are these famous footballers? More

    Keir Starmer vows to BLOCK English clubs joining new European Super League as he slams hated plot to revive it

    ENGLISH clubs will be BLOCKED from joining the newly-proposed European Super League, Sir Keir Starmer vowed today.

And that is exactly why football needs a regulator with real teeth and why it needs one now.”The owners of elite clubs cannot be allowed to run roughshod over football.”But it is not just about urgency, it is also about ensuring the regulator has real power.”Without the ability to stand up to the top clubs, then it will betray not just the fans but the entire football pyramid that the success of our national game has been built on.”What’s the ‘Unify League’ and which Prem teams would play in new version of European Super League?Revived Super LeaguePromoter of the new league, A22 Sports, unveiled plans for a radical revamped format named the “Unify League” on Tuesday.The Madrid-based firm, backed by Real Madrid chairman Florentino Perez, said it had written to Fifa and Uefa to ask for official endorsement for the league.The previous attempt by the firm to form a breakaway league announced in April 2021 was met by huge fan backlash.But the new refined league will see 96 teams spread across four divisions – Star, Gold, Blue and Union – and crucially include promotion and relegation, meaning inclusion will be based on merit.As many as TEN Premier League teams will be offered the chance to take part in the new competition.Participation in the league would NOT affect membership of the Premier League, but the tournament would effectively spell the end of the Champions League.SunSport understands a significant number of Prem clubs have privately said they would be willing to take part in the new league.A22 bosses believe Uefa must endorse its latest proposal following a December 2023 European Court of Justice ruling that previous tactics used to block a Super League were contrary to EU law.And the league’s bosses are confident the latest iteration of their “Super League” will receive authorisation from Uefa, according to The Guardian.The report adds that Uefa is unlikely to respond in haste and that authorising the league, in essence calling A22’s bluff, will be an option under consideration.The prize fund for the tournament is yet to be confirmed, but A22 has promised £330million in “solidarity” payments for smaller clubs and countries.The total pot is expected to exceed the current £2billion Uefa fund for the Champions League and the £700m for the Europa and Conference Leagues combined.READ MORE SUN STORIESMeasures to block clubs from joining any breakaway competition are included in the Government’s Independent Football Regulator, currently going through Parliament and backed by all major parties.But the new competition seeks to supplant Uefa and be club-run — as happened when the Premier League was set up more than 30 years ago.Plenty to like… but will fans back it?By Martin Lipton, Chief Sports ReporterTHE biggest issue with the first version of Super League was that it was utterly unfair.Football has always been about what you earn on the field — and offering the Prem’s Big Six a place in a breakaway elite for life would have destroyed the fabric of the game.So while many fans reacted in anger at the ­latest proposals unveiled by Madrid-based A22, its new plans do tick more boxes.Qualification by merit, rather than on the basis of what a club did ten, 15 or 20 years ago is a step in the right direction.As are extra “big” games, playing all teams in a mini-league, home and away — it’s hard to keep tabs on a Champions League table of 36 clubs.Then an end-of-season knock-out with real tension, especially with a final four-style week of one-off semis and the final.But it seems unlikely that a new streaming platform, offering both ad-supported “free” games and a bells-and-whistles subscription service, can really earn the billions required to run four competitions every season.The potential autumn 2026 launch means huge obstacles will have to be cleared quickly — and that includes winning over the fans whose determination torpedoed Super League version one in 48 hours in 2021.In the end, it will come down to the clubs.If they feel their bread is being buttered the way they like it, then it could be on — and if that means jettisoning the Carabao Cup, so be it More

    Five clubs Marcus Rashford could join after bombshell transfer revelation Man Utd star ‘wants a new challenge’

The boyhood Manchester United fan and player was dropped for his side’s 2-1 win at the Etihad against rivals City.Marcus Rashford sensationally threw his Man Utd future into doubtCredit: GettyAnd that came amid speculation the club are ready to sell the England international. Now in an interview with journalist Henry Winter, he said: “For me, personally, I think I’m ready for a new challenge and the next steps.”When I leave it’s going to be ‘no hard feelings’. You’re not going to have any negative comments from me about Manchester United.

Barcelona are stocked up on wide options but with Robert Lewandowski now 36, Rashford’s ability to play centrally could be key. Arsenal The Gunners have never shied away from signing stars from rivals, recently Kai Havertz and Raheem Sterling from Chelsea.
