so let’s get into the awards then which is more straightforward because you’re judging what you’ve seen not what predicting what you you think you might see Best player Was this an easy one yeah For both of you Yeah So easy He’s I mean he’ll win every award I would imagine PFA football writers ours Not that ours is up but yeah he’s the best player in the league by a mile this season Why is it always the striker the goal scorer could it have been Virgil van Djk um listen it could have been I think if you were asking me who’d come next I think Virgil van Djk’s definitely certainly in the running for me If I was going again I probably would go for Van Djk But I just think Salah had that spell It It wasn’t just that he was the top goal scorer He’s I mean if he scores tonight and listen he’ll be frustrated He’s captain Liverpool for the first time Liverpool have lost and he had that chance I think to go level with with Alan Shear and Andy Cole on goal involvement He can still sort you know fix that for himself at the weekend but I think that’ll frustrate him So it’s not just him being the top goal scorer He’s having like one of his best ever seasons in terms of numbers It’s actually interesting you say that because if you said to me which Liverpool player would you you know with those three that were running down the contracts which one would you you think that they would miss most it would be Van Djk I think you know there’s the biggest impact I think on L just of his leadership and just what he does for the team But in terms of just sometimes the goals the assists they always catch the eye and those players win the trophies You’ve also agreed on the best young player an 18-year-old from Arsenal Miles Lewis Skellyy What is it about him i mean this has been a real breakthrough season for him halfway through this season What is it about i mean he probably hasn’t played a full season I don’t know what his numbers are games wise but when I think of young players and I think the list has come out hasn’t it a week or so ago he wasn’t on it I know but there’s but there’s players who are like 23 24 now I think if you’re 20 21 for me that’s young but he’s only 18 that that’s that’s proper young that’s when we we’ve both probably got into big football clubs at 18 and you’re a baby you know the thought that you know you could win young play at that age that’s something like Michael Owen does or maybe Wayne Rooney you know absolute superstars at that age and I couldn’t believe he wasn’t on that list and the reason I went for him was because there was obviously other people in the running it was more how well he’s played in big games that I’ve watched you know against Man City against Liverpool pool against sort of in the burnabout It was more five or six big performances in big venues where I thought I remember going to those places at 23 24 and that was a lot for me to do that and and to actually go there and play well You almost felt like you needed to be in your peak to go to these big stadiums and play really well and sort of feel comfortable and maybe not dominate the opponents but feel like I can I can go there and be one of the best players Be doing that at 18 I watched them in the burnabout I was like wow You know it was just off the I mean it doesn’t get any bigger than the burnabout What what’s bigger after that in terms of a stadium that you want to go potentially playing in a World Cup which is is something that maybe Thomas Tul is already thinking about with him yeah that’s been a massive problem position for Arsenal You know Teschenko Kivio’s played there Tommy Asu’s played there Timber’s gone there and he’s gone and he’s made it look like it’s been his It’s like he’s always been there and that’s the biggest compliment you can play to a young player is that they slot in And look Sack has done it for Arsenal as well in the last few years but to go in that position and do what he’s done And like Cara says the ability to take the ball in the biggest games in tight situations and it’s incredible what he’s doing And they’ve got to change the criteria on this young player of the year There’s players in there that are 23 24 years of age Graham Bur I think was 23 this week so he’s 22 for obviously most of this season He comes close but when you think young player you do think 18 I think the criteria is 23 at the start of the season It’s just not right though is it that’s 2 I know 23 feels a bit old It is too old for what you would class as being a young player 20 23 lads can play 200 300 games I think starting the season at 21 and and you you’re 20 you finish the season at 22 feels for me that’s probably where he be an England regular then in terms of next season and the World Cup Yeah Oh definitely Yeah Definitely The way he’s playing the maturity that he shows the way in which he handles both sides of the games the defensive part and the attacking part He goes into midfield All the things you want from a modern foret He’s tenacious He’s aggressive He understands the position well He can defend one-on-one He doesn’t get done on the back post as much as you might think he would but with his height all the things you look for in a fullback he’s got it So he’s no fantastic start to his career All right best signing And there’s been a little bit of disagreement on this We asked the guys to take into account value as well on their spend So Jamie you went with Dean Hson who’s already been snapped up and he’s on his way to Real Madrid 50 million from Juventus on the way to Real Madrid for 50 That was the uh the release club Yeah I mean to be honest Melenovic and him and I think when we come to the next one I’ve almost got I’ve gone the other way around But the reason I went for him on that one is because almost what what he’s done in terms of signing for Bulma So he’s signed for 15 million and he’s gone for 50 million within a season you know and and watching him play this season Wow I mean play off both feet He’s already obviously played for Spain now as well He’s so cool and kind What’s interesting Jamie I think when we talk about center backs a lot of managers still would would be uh resistant to young players playing in that position on the pitch has he sort of bucked that trend shown that age doesn’t matter i’m I’m not saying it No I don’t think managers are wrong I think that just shows how special he is You know the managers aren’t wrong about goalkeepers and center backs playing at a certain age whether it’s 19 20 18 what is he is he 19 19 But and and for the majority of the season I think it was 18 to play in that position at center back it’s like wow I mean I played very early at times at center back I it was too much for me You know you make a mistake you learn in the game but he looks so cool composed Ram is at that age for 50 million I mean you’ve got to be something pretty special And he is Melenovic 12 million pounds guy Yeah Unbelievable signing Uh I think to be honest with you I was similar but I sometimes when you’ve watched one player a little bit more than the other just purely through games that you get given you just think you feel a bit more of a bias towards them and Meenovic I think the season that Forest have had is dominance in that team The way in which they defend um is so critical to it They defend the box a lot So there’s a lot a lot of demand We saw the stats before the game about how much defending they have to do Um did you think some of Boris signings go a little bit under the radar they do with me You think about Melenovic The one thing I would say about him is I think Forest suits him down to the ground Sometimes when you sort of go and play for a Liverpool or an Arsenal there is a lot more demand upon you in terms to play high up the pitch You don’t have to play high up the pitch You don’t have to be as good on the ball in terms of demands on the ball but also your fullbacks usually go forward both at once You might get left two on two There’s an expectation to win every single week Whereas with Forest you’re playing a team that is quite compact It suits him but he’s been a brilliant signing So we move on to uh best newcomer and Jamie you said you already that um you thought Meenova was a guy and we heard you talking about it earlier Is there anything that you would add to to what Gary was saying there no no I mean to me it was almost the same category In some ways I just went the other way round because of you know the the transfer fem going to get it could have easily gone the other way but yeah two center backs maybe a little bit of a bias because of my position on a slot Gary you honestly I think to win the Premier League in your first season I know there’s a couple of managers done it in the Premier League sort of Mourinho and Ancelotti I think won his first season maybe but you’re talking to some of the greatest managers there that have done that and comes with not the same reputation speaking to Mo Salah on Friday he said he actually corrected himself he Not many people had heard of him He said he wasn’t And he corrected himself and said basically what we all thought at the start how can this guy take over from Jurgen Klopp you know he didn’t look like he had the same level anything like the same level of personality but he’s made up for it and more in terms of how he’s compensated for it with his composure a little bit of stealing termination some big decisions how he’s handled the three contract situations throughout the whole season It’s been a perfect coaching performance for me Yeah just because purely I couldn’t think of two different players I thought I’ll put Anna slot in there as the best newcomer in the Premier League winning the Premier League in your first season Most improved player there is agreement again Ryan Gravenber Jamie White Yeah Uh I think probably the biggest surprise this season is not just him as a player because a lot of players we’ve seen in the past have you know an average first season and they grow second season but he’s he’s playing a completely different role I mean I watched him last season wasn’t quite sure about me He looked like an attacking player but you like it looked a bit leggy He looked okay he can run with the ball a little bit forward I’m not quite sure what he is He looked like he lacked intensity really And then he’s gone into central midfielder a holding midfield position that Liverpool have been trying to sign someone in for about two two or three seasons They just keep missing out on players that they go for for whatever reason Uh and it’ be interesting if Liverpool want to do that again um this summer with somebody else because I still think they probably need a player in that role but I don’t see anybody almost taking his role I think he’s sort of nail that position now as that sort of number six in the Liverpool team Let’s move on to best coach and um we’ve heard from from you Jamie on on Anna Slot tonight but but Gary tell us about Nuno and why you’ve he’s edged your vote Uh yeah you could say slot uh 100% but because I put him as newcomer I thought that Nuno was definitely worthy of the the mention the fact that you know Car had them going down at the start of the season I had them close to you they would have probably been my next team you know in terms of sort of being down there near the bottom So for him to have them where they are right now with a chance of Champions League football is absolutely sensational So yeah I’ve gone I’ve gone for him Uh but I think the manager of the year will be on the slot when it comes to the end of season awards and probably if I was pushed on that I would say is that auntie hey no I mean like you know the one what’s what’s the main managers award the manager award the l awards yeah I think that slot will win it but I think new deserves a special mention just on quickly on grain birch I can’t believe the improvement in him though I mean I’m not I’m not going to put him in the same category as a young Vieiraa but he has a little bit of a sort of feel about him in terms of how he plays is unbelievable way in which he’s improved because you said you’d prefer Man United’s midfield to Liverpool Honestly I cannot believe when I watch them pulls me every single week So so Lai Jones Graham Bur and Mallister Mallister is a good player but the other three I can’t believe taking me back to August I cannot believe the levels of performance that to be fair got out of them It’s absolutely unbelievable When we were discussing this earlier there was the invention of a new category We satisfied Kite with best coach We wanted best coaching performance as well in an individual game So um I think it was you that was driving this this Gary So you wanted to go with Eddie How in the Carabal Cup final Um yeah I I just thought it was an outstanding um coaching performance Um Liverpool obviously dominated the ball Um Newcastle had far more shots They controlled the game without the ball Salah I don’t think had a shot or created a chance in the entire game which I think is the first time that that’s happened this season or only time it’s happened this season Um yeah I I thought they were outstanding on that on a day that I thought Liverpool would win and I I never thought any other result would happen other than Liverpool winning So for me that was a great performance on that day I mean I mean when the category came up about three hours ago it got me thinking but I was I was thinking about Eddie how that cup and not be for the reasons Gary’s mentioned but something he said after the game I thought was was brilliant where he said they’ve been preparing for that game as soon as they got to the final and they played Liverpool a few weeks before and they almost did the opposite of everything they were going to do in the game Each never played There’s probably nothing wrong with him Just leave him out and and I thought wow that’s you know a manager thinking you still got important league games but from Monday to Friday we’re working on the Liverpool game the set piece they scored in in the in the in the game from Danbe they said they’ve been working on for weeks so yeah I thought it was really interesting the way Eddie how went about it but I went forola what was special about Bulma’s at Newcastle I think Newcastle I think were on a run of winning six on the bounce it was at St James’s Park and I think it was the the one where Bulma had maybe seven or eight players out maybe even more actually and they absolutely battered Newcastle I think we highlight I did on Monday Night Football the performance of Ryan Christie I remember K has flying down the left wing putting a great ball in as well and you know to go to there and win 4-1 at that stage and it was a brilliant as I said resulting performance Biggest overachievers there has been a bit of a theme you might notice here Nottingham Forest uh get the vote from both of them Biggest underachievers drum roll please Manchester United Well I I suppose winning a trophy might slant things Could it on Wednesday if this was Thursday morning and United had just got their hands on the Europa League it’s a silver lining around a very dark cloud You know it is I mean United winning the it’s a it’s a to win a trophy should never be disrespected and it’ll be a brilliant achievement to win three you know two trophies in two years Um three trophies in three years Three Yeah Three trophies in three years Um is is an incredible achievement in a season in in an era where United have been really poor But to be where they are in the league is incredible Are you encouraged Gary by uh reports that Matteas Kuna could be on his way to Manchester United as soon as the season and that Liam Dilap is strongly considered to be I’m more yes you to see someone with that sort of level of running ability legs I think it suits Old Trafford Uh Dilap I think has got a level of potential and ability My fear is that the expectation of him coming the pressure on another young player to be to lead that line for Manchester United We’ve already seen sort of Xerx and Hen this this season struggle So I think that one just needs to be sort of with a little bit of do you think the timing is significant the speed with which they look to be doing things well the season has been over in essence in the Premier League for quite a while So there’s no reason why they wouldn’t have been able to plan Ruben Amarim has a specific style of play and he I think it’s quite clear he wants massive upheaval in the squad So I think he’s just basically they’ve got a lot of business to do and that’s not just bringing players in that’s getting players out So you know look signing players who’ve got legs who can run who can sort of you know improve what they’ve currently they need forwards obviously but they need players in every single position and I think Amar will want absolute wipe out of the current squad Um so there’s a lot of business to do so that’s why they’ve had to start early I’m guessing we could have put Spurs in this category as as well Jamie Who who do you think comes out on top on Wednesday i think Man United will win Spears have got injury problems as well as they have done all season but I just think Manchester United as Gary says have an ability to still win games They beat Man City in FA Cup final last season The club have still got that feeling Supporters go there I think the United supporters will go there expecting to win because the Man United I don’t think Spurs supporters will Spurs can win It has been a season of sort of you know underdogs winning cup finals We’ve seen that obviously domestically in England but uh I I think if Tottenham went in front United could still win I think if Man United went in front I couldn’t see where Tottenham would find something to go and win the game I think United will win just what for the reasons Jamie have said that there’s some players in there like Bruno and Casemiro who I think that’ll just feel that occasion want it need it in their lives Uh and I agree with the belief I know that history is something that gets pointed towards but there is sometimes a feeling Although I had it earlier on the season when I went to watch the Carabal Cup final I thought Liverpool would absolutely be lifting that trophy and Van Dijk would be up on that podium and they weren’t So there’s got to be a garden against that But I do feel confident United on Wednesday just getting through this game Let’s hope you can remember more games than you can go So you got League Cup final again But Jamie uh the special night that it was for Everton really this one Yeah I mean the Mercury side derby means a lot to me It was the last one at Gooderson There was a lot built up about it I think the game had been postponed earlier Uh a night game as well which is always whether it was at Anfield or Goodison And it was a night when that equalizer went in that I I mean that was a blow you know watching that go in But it was also I I think it was it was a great night almost for everybody A great game should I say for everybody except Liverpool but it’s turned out all right because Liverpool won the lead But it was it was a great night that Everton didn’t lose the last derby at home It was an iconic goal that we remember forever The last as I said m the supporters are on the pitch Great scenes for them Arsenal probably thought okay the title’s back on It was a it was a bad one for Liverpool but it ends up turning all right for Liverpool in terms of the league So for me for the the last Mury side derby at Gooderson to almost finish in the draw and both teams were level I think on games there So that that’s one of the moments and that Tarovski goal I think was one of the standout moments of the season You really love that Caraval Cup final didn’t you didn’t you hear him didn’t you hear him on commentary it was a high Take it to the corner Take it to the time Newcastle players No Do you know something i It was the surprise I think the performance by Newcastle was incredible But Joe something most of all it was the fact the Newcastle fans and what it meant to them seeing them at the end of the game just up behind me like the screaming that sort of the veins popping out of the necks the tears everything that you want to see in I’m sure Crystal Palace fans were the same um on Saturday it’s especially they won a trophy I think 50 years 70 years domestically was it so yeah it was it was an incredible day that you don’t normally see shocks that much anymore They don’t seem to come around as much and we’ve seen a couple in the cup finals this

both of them are big hypocrites. their opinions dont matter on this one
Gary Neville: "Mac Allister's a good player but the other three…" Mac Allister is Liverpool's best midfielder full stop, what are you even saying? He gets into any team's first 11 in all of Europe.
Van Dijk has the biggest impact they say…well if you take him out and put someone else there all year they'll still win the league, if you take Salah out they'd potentially not qualify for the champions league
why talk so much about other tournaments in a Premier league video. Skipped over the assessment of Forest as over achievers
Is Gary ok he looks very yellow
Lewis-Skelley has literally seen ted on numerous occassions. Thats already dreadful.
If Villa can finish top 5 then Emery should get mots
The 2 most bi est people in football
They both draw with shearer for the most annoying commentators…
MLS hahahaha is this Mainoo 2.0 what happened to the next best thing? up for sale same with MLS in a couple seasons
No Jacob Murphy for most improved ..? 🙈
Liverpool Liverpool Man U Man U Liverpool Liverpool Man U Man U… This is a summary of this video.
Van Dijk doesn’t touch 2nd place, absolute revitalisation.
Made up out of nowhere, literally handed Fulham a win, him and Robertson. Please watch a game
Aston Villa vs PSG second leg not even being mentioned is a disgrace, lewis skelly is still good but not even the best young left back in the league. Kerkez far better as a left back and Morgan Rogers is EASILY YPOTS.
They build lewis skelly up cause he’s english as if kerkez aint young
Why does Gary need an earpiece for a conversation with two people in front of him?
So, they’re basing their myopic opinions based on the games they’ve watched of these players rather than reviewing their statistical performances over the course of the season.
Never seen such a consistent player than Salah incredible hats off 👏
Vvd???? Mr clusmy haha. Rice has been better ,
Huijsen or Rogers are young player of the season, picking lewis skelly is criminal, guy played half a season got 2 red cards and 1 assist… these 2 really are a pair of clowns

Many people said this already, but jacob murphy is the most improved player this season 🙂 This guy not only carried my fantasy team but he saved my Stake parlays so many times as well! 😁 aint even debatable imo 🔥

Given Villa's injuries, they were the biggest overachievers, played far more games than forest, went deep into CL and FA cup and still are fighting for CL next season which is incredible given they were 12th at one point.
Everton was gifted that draw by the ref every one knows it . I am not gutted about LFC losing because I was so happy for Newcastle and also so happy for Chrystal palace and Spurs , its been a great season all round so happy to see the cheaters (Man Cheaters ) not winning anything and Manure too and dropping to near the foot of the table lol such fun
Jacob Murphy looked over once again has to be most improved player for me
Gravenberch not young player of the year? Thats weird…
skysports + gary + jamie = turn off and stop watching 😷👍
people moaning about adverts on youtube 2025 ???????? not heard of fire fox and uBLOCK origin ????????????? still i guess you have to be simple to watch this lot talking
How did lewis smelly win YPOTS? 😂😂
Lewis Skelly? but I thought…….??
Get those clowns out of there pleaseeee 🤡
Wouldn´t be surprised if Neville puts Utd. into the top 6 again for next season. Been scratching my head for years now how highly they evaluated Utd. when they were constantly declining.
Hall from Newcastle has had a better season that skelly
6:00 One big shoutout to that new Wolves CB, they really kicked on once they signed him.
Ant and Dec
Honorable mention for “Most Improved” = Justin Kluivert. He had a great season and kept Bournemouth in the top half and threatening for playing in Europe
I just can't stand carragh and Neville
cari di google 𝓝𝓔𝓝𝓖4𝓓 dan anda akan menemukan sensasi yg berbeda dari yang lain🤩
Neville as usuall talks utter garbage.
bit of english biased for the young player award
