Gary Neville latest comments upset some Arsenal fans

Gary Neville has engaged in a dispute with some Arsenal fans after suggesting they might be hypocritical regarding Gabriel Magalhaes’ goal against Crystal Palace. The Brazilian defender’s header appeared to involve a foul on a Palace defender, reminiscent of Joelinton’s role in Anthony Gordon’s goal against Arsenal last year.

The match against Newcastle was contentious, with the ball seemingly crossing the line before Newcastle scored. Arsenal supporters vehemently protested, and Mikel Arteta faced charges for his comments on the matter.

After Arsenal scored a similar goal against Palace, Gary Neville posted on social media as reported by the Sun: “Arsenal fans think this is a foul then” with two laughing emojis.

Several Arsenal fans responded to his comments, prompting Neville to reply to one fan: “I don’t think it’s a foul like I didn’t at Newcastle.”

Just Arsenal Opinion

We have moved on from that Newcastle game, and it is baffling that Neville continues to talk about it.

The rules were applied in our favour just as they were applied against us, and we won the match.

We do not have to pay attention to Neville and his comments, we just need to focus on winning as many matches as possible.

  1. Does anyone take Gary seriously??? Guy makes like 3,000 predictions in a season then turns around at the end of the season when he gets maybe 2 right and then says, “I told you”

    1. Yes, perish that hideous thought that ANY of us- esp Arsenal fans, as we are all perfect, myself being the only exception – could EVER be so awful and evil as to be a hypocrite! Golly gosh!

      And as ALL Arsenal fans worldwide know, Neville NEVER says a single word that is ever true! He couldnt possibly, as he is an eveil MANC and therefore the awful FOE of all Gooners, even non thinking ones!

  2. OT.
    Would Dominic Solanke prove himself to Arsenal in the ongoing AFC 8ournemouth vs Liverpool Epl match. He is top quality top league regular goals scoring striker? Who is worthy of being signed this window by the Gunners. If he scored the equaliser or the winner against the Reds in the match.

  3. So GARY NEVILLE “thinks” fans could be hypocritical. He is accusing fans of having double standards then. Well well! I wonder whatever gave him THAT idea!

    To be serious, I have been telling anyone who cares to open their ears and eyes, which are, predictably very few people, that ALL humans are hypocrites, it being in our common nature. I have been saying this since my early adult years but very few care to listen .

    As if ANY of us could actually have faults, ooh what a hideous slander!

    1. Is it really a surprise that people don’t listen to you? You’re basically the same as how you’ve described Neville: spouting so much that every so often something sticks. Why do you think anyone would pay extra special attention to you anyway? You’re clearly not as intelligent as you think you are, seem utterly toxic, and you’re easily the most overwhelmingly arrogant one on here.
      In short Jon, learn to type properly, learn to communicate properly, then understand you really aren’t special enough for people to hang on your every word. Honestly it’s embarrassing reading your comments, even when you’re right you ruin it by acting like an utter bell. Do yourself a favour and lay off the babysham before you tickle your keyboard.

  4. It is terrible! As Dominic Solanke failed to prove himself in his club Epl home match against Liverpool today. That he is worthy of being signed by Arsenal this window. For, his AFC Bournemouth team side in which he played lost 0-4 to Liverpool in the match.
    I therefore, hereby withdraw my request to Arsenal to sign him this window.

  5. The type and amount contact made on the 2 plays was entirely different from each other. Neville’s just another “journalist” trying to stir the pot however he can.

    1. I think it is stretching a point to call that pundit “a journalist”.
      Journalism was, when I was younger, a much esteemed profession with real wordsmiths who knew who to use words for real effect.

      THAT quality is plainly absent in Neville, who is a decent pundit only, but who rarely ever says anything noteworthy or memorable, as GREAT journalists do, or write, all the time.
      I will sadly admit that over the last two or three decades, the REAL quality sports journos are now noticeably fewer than way back when!

      1. I agree Jon. That’s actually the reason I had put the term in quotation marks. It’s sad indeed how the profession has changed.
