      They can be crowned Premier League winners with three points against Chelsea on Sunday.
      And finals in the FA Cup and Champions League are yet to come as Manchester United and Inter Milan bid to thwart their treble ambitions.
      Man City’s sensational end to the campaign comes after Neville debated the point earlier in the season that they were not at their very best.
      Now they are firing on all cylinders, Conor Humm, a junior assistant producer at Sky Sports, has called Neville out regarding his comments.

      He said: “Gary Neville said Manchester City weren’t at their usual level this season.
      “They’re about to surpass his club’s greatest ever season and do it in a far more impressive way.”
      A startled Neville replied on Thursday morning, saying: “You okay? They weren’t at their usual level. What a weird point to make. 
      “Tag me in by the way if you work at Sky. Don’t be shy.”

      Humm then made the decision to delete his account.
      This led to another Twitter user calling out the Man Utd legend, saying: “Gary Neville biting back at 5:38am from a tweet he wasn’t even tagged in and mentioning Connor’s place of work is pretty wild.”
      But Neville did not back down as he responded: “Biting 😂 (really). Wild 😂 (hardly). 5.38 😂 (it’s when I get up). It came up on my for you function! As did your reply!!
      “If he works at Sky then tag me in. Easy for people to have a little dig at me but not ok for me to go back?”
      During the second half of the season, Neville has repeatedly backed Man City to catch Arsenal and win the Premier League title.
      And they are now champions in waiting as they look to wrap up the league at the Etihad this weekend.
      Last month, Neville admitted he was fearing a Man City treble.
      He said: “They’re purring, they’re playing well, they’re in great form, they’re serious now about it [the treble].” More

      But it was a right elbow from The Nightmare that flattened the 40-year-old and handed him his latest victory.
      The YouTuber turned boxer initially denied cracking Fournier with the illegal strike but has since changed his tune as boxing authorities weigh up OVERTURNING his victory.
      However, UFC legend McGregor remained unmoved by the controversial finish and instead praised KSI.
      The 34-year-old tweeted: “I seen it, I liked it. He goin’, fair play, KSI.”

      McGregor previously slotted the British star as he prepared for a “nothing burger” boxing match with his former training partner Dillon Danis – which was eventually cancelled.
      The former two division UFC champion was in no mood to entertain the fight and slammed KSI as a “friendly little nerd”, while telling Danis to get back into MMA.
      KSI responded to McGregor’s tweet talking about why he hasn’t spoken to Danis in a while, saying: “I’m sorry but I’m about do some serious damage to your boy.”
      McGregor replied: “Brother you’re a friendly little nerd I don’t care.

      “He should be back doing MMA if he is doing this little nothing burger match with you.
      “I couldn’t care less about this genre of boxing, I am sorry. Have a good one.”
      McGRegor has not fought since suffering a horrific broken leg in his defeat to Dustin Poirier in 2021 at UFC 264.
      He appears to be closing in on a return to the octagon with a potential bout against Michael Chandler.
      A date for McGregor’s eagerly-anticipated clash with Chandler has yet to be announced.
      But footage of Notorious SHOVING the American has been released ahead of the return of The Ultimate Fighter.
      The lightweight standouts coached opposite one another on season 31 of the long-running reality TV show – which was filmed in Las Vegas earlier this year. More

      Conor McGregor vows to ‘blow Manny Pacquiao’s head off’ in bare-knuckle fight in now-deleted tweet

      by

      CONOR McGREGOR vowed to “blow Manny Pacquiao’s head off” in bare-knuckle fight in a now-deleted tweet. The online rant comes after Pacquiao lost a court battle with Paradigm Sports management, who also represent McGregor.

      Aiming a threat at Pacquiao, McGregor posted in a deleted tweet: “I’ll blow his head off with a back hand in bare knuckle.”
      PacMan in 2020 signed with Paradigm Sports management and was in talks to fight McGregor in the Middle East.
      But the Filipino icon failed to have a bout under Paradigm and was instead sued for breach of contract.
      Following a case in California, Pacquiao was left to owe $8m (£6.3m), with £4m in damages, £1.7m in legal fees and additional 10 percent annual interest on the verdict amount for three years.

      McGregor, 34, took to social media, reacting to the news by posting: “And don’t let it happen again, @MannyPacquiao.”
      And in another deleted tweet, he added: “Manny owes 8 in all. 5.1 he owes and then 2.1 in legal costs.
      “Legal fees are heavy but that’s what we do. Heavy weight operations.”
      Paradigm signed Pacquiao as a client three years ago and tried to negotiate a fight with both McGregor or Mikey Garcia.

      But the eight-division boxing champion was later announced to be facing Errol Spence Jr.
      American Spence, 33, pulled out injured and was replaced by Yordenis Ugas, who won the fight and sent Pacquiao into retirement.
      But Paradigm alleged that Pacquiao’s other representatives –  Al Haymon’s Premier Boxing Champions – interfered with their deal.
      It led to Paradigm filing the lawsuit, which Pacquiao, 44, lost when the jury ruled that he acted in bad faith.
      The Orange County jury voted 9-3 in favour of Paradigm in the case.
      Paradigm CEO Audie Attar said in a statement: “We are elated to learn of the jury’s ruling in Paradigm’s favor in our suit against Manny Pacquiao.
      “The jury plainly found that Pacquiao testified falsely in denying Paradigm’s claims against him, and his excuses for his conduct proves our case that a breach of contract was committed.
      “Hopefully, Manny will have learned a lesson from the verdict and will henceforth act with the honesty and integrity that was so lacking in his treatment of Paradigm.”
      Pacquiao retired as a professional following defeat to Ugas, 36, but returned last December for an exhibition bout.

      But he recently revealed his next exhibition is set for the summer while also opening the door to a full boxing comeback.

      ‘Can you not read?’ – KSI and Tommy Fury erupt into Twitter spat amid rumoured talks for celebrity boxing fight

      But those plans look to have faced the KO after Paul was beaten by Fury in February by split-decision in Saudi Arabia.
      KSI has since revealed he now wants to instead face Fury and finish what Paul started.
      He tweeted: “I’d much rather fight and beat Tommy Fury so I can ruin Jake Paul’s legacy.”
      But a shocked Fury, 23, responded: “Wait. Beat who?”

      To which KSI, 29, bluntly fired back: “Beat you. Can you not read?”
      Paul, 26, snubbed a Fury rematch or talks with KSI to instead return on August 5 in Texas against 38-year-old ex-UFC star Nate Diaz.
      So KSI will refuse to wait around for Paul and instead try to one-up his arch enemy by beating Fury.
      He told SunSport: “I want Tommy Fury, simple as that. I’m not going to waste my time with Jake Paul.

      “He wants to fight Nate Diaz, an MMA fighter who isn’t known for his boxing; black belt in jujitsu, blah, blah, blah.
      “Maybe in the UFC ring it would be a bit more entertaining, in the MMA ring yeah, but in the boxing ring everyone just knows Jake is going to win that.
      “I’m not just going to waste my time, I’m going to go straight for Tommy and do what Jake Paul couldn’t.”
      KSI returns on May 13 at Wembley Arena against millionaire nightclub tycoon-turned 9-0 boxer Joe Fournier, 40.
      But in the background, his promoter Kalle Sauerland revealed ongoing negotiations with Fury and his dad John.
      And KSI insisted the talks to face the brother of unbeaten heavyweight champion Tyson is no publicity stunt.
      He said: “It’s so funny, because a lot of people think it’s all cap.
      “A lot of people think I’m just chatting out my a***. Does it look like I’m chatting out my a***?
      “We’re working on it, man. Just a few thing but I think we’re very close and I’m pretty sure, fingers crossed by next week, we’ll see.”

      In doing so, he set a new record for most goals in a single Premier League season, eclipsing the 34 from Shearer in 1994/95 and Andy Cole in 1993/94.
      After Haaland’s 35th league goal, Gary Lineker tweeted: “A Premier League record for @ErlingHaaland. 35 goals. That’s nuts.
      “Thoughts are with @alanshearer at this difficult time.”
