Ex-Manchester United Defender Gary Neville Regrets Past Comment
Ex Manchester United defender, Gary Neville confesses that he regrets making a cruel comment about former Arsenal and Chelsea player, David Luiz.
David Luiz was an impressive player during his reign in both Arsenal and Chelsea, although he faced a defeat to Liverpool in 2011-2012 campaign. Due to his defeat, Gary Neville stated the player acted like he was controlled by a 10 year old.
David expresses his regret when speaking with Sky Bet “I wish I never said the David Luiz line, about him being a ‘PlayStation player.’ I wish I never said ‘billion-dollar bottle jobs’ about Chelsea.”
Lionel Messi had to watch from the sidelines as Inter Miami collapsed from a two-goal advantage to suffer a 4-3 defeat against FC Dallas on Sunday. Messi, along with Sergio Busquets, Jordi Alba, and Luis Suarez, was rested for the game as manager Javier Mascherano kept his key players fresh for their upcoming CONCACAF Champions Cup clash.
Without their stars, Miami slipped to their first loss of the 2025 MLS season, throwing away a 3-1 lead and dropping to fifth place in the Eastern Conference with 18 points. After the final whistle, Mascherano took the blame for the defeat, admitting his decisions cost the team. “It’s tough,” he said.
“For 65 minutes we were in control and had turned the game around, but I misread the situation. I made some wrong calls and couldn’t guide the players the way I should have.”
Real Madrid boss Carlo Ancelotti has admitted he was left hurt after his side’s painful loss to Barcelona in the Copa del Rey final on Saturday night.
Ancelotti watched his team battle hard but fall short as Barcelona edged a 3-2 win to lift the trophy. Goals from Pedri, Ferran Torres, Aurélien Tchouaméni, and Kylian Mbappé saw the match locked at 2-2 after full-time, before Jules Kounde grabbed the winner for Hansi Flick’s side in extra time. After the match, Ancelotti said it was tough to accept because Real Madrid had fought till the end.
“We dominated the second half and gave everything. I can’t fault the players, they did their best,” he said. “I’m hurt because we were so close to winning.” He added that the team would now turn their full focus to La Liga, where they are currently second, trailing Barcelona by four points.

Praising Yamal’s display, Odumodublvck boldly stated that Messi, even during his teenage years, didn’t reach the level Yamal is showing now. Taking to his X page, he wrote, “Yamal is better than Lionel Messi. Na me, Kala, talk am. At 17, Messi no touch this level. I watched him live. Nobody fit whine me.”
