He replied with a melodramatic response, saying: “Very confident, Dave.
“They beat them 5-0 last season but I think it’s going to be six or seven tonight.
“This Manchester United team are absolutely shocking. Awful. One of the worst Manchester United teams we’ve ever seen.
“But Liverpool, great.”
Neville responded to his colleague with reference to a recent comedy sketch by impressionist Conor Moore.

A third said: “Fair play to him being able to laugh at himself.”
Man Utd currently sit at the bottom of the Premier League table with no points following two successive defeats to Brighton and Brentford respectively.
Meanwhile, Liverpool are on two points having been held to a draw by both Fulham and Crystal Palace.
United fans are expected to protest against the Glazer family’s ownership of the club before and during the game.
There are plans to ‘Empty Old Trafford’ during the game whereby thousands of fans will stand outside the ground instead of taking their seats.
This has been organized by supporters in a bid to force the Glazers to sell their stake as the club’s owners.
