I'm a die hard liverpool supporter but I'm a football fan first & foremost. Gary is a credit to his mother & father..listen to him all day. Class act.

[RobotechLegos]

Gary Neville is to Manchester United what Batman was to the Justice League. No superpowers, but through sheer brains and determination a leader and a hero. Mad mad respect.

[blazzz]

As a Liverpool fan I honestly have respect for Neville. One of the best right backs this country ever produced and when you see how well he has handled himself on and off the pitch as opposed to a certain Ryan Giggs, you realise how much of a giant he is.

1:25:55 I had to pause this. Gary Neville just made me realise I hadn’t spoken to my Mum in too long. I phoned her from Aus and we spoke for over an hour and a half.

Came straight back to this after to watch the rest. What a gent this guy is. I’m a Utd fan so I already loved him, but he seriously is a top top bloke. Great interview.

Is it mad that as a dyed in the wool Liverpool fan (YNWA), I’ve developed a bit of a mancrush on Gary Neville??? What an engaging, personable, witty, intelligent and down to earth honest bloke he is. An absolute delight to watch and listen to, I could do it all day. And when he plays down his ability on the pitch, I think he’s doing himself a massive disservice, one of THE BEST players (nevermind in his position) that’s ever played the game, he must’ve been to have been at Manchester United for 25 years AND been first choice for club and country. What a top, humble guy he is, MASSIVE RESPECT!!!

Think we're all seeing a really awesome side to Gary Neville after his football career, seems like a really top bloke.

[pauladamson]

I’ve seen him interviewed plenty of times before and what strikes me about him is his openness about his vulnerability. A well brought up young man, lucky to have had a good family behind him. Respect to him.

Gary is a top bloke. No one wants to grow up being a Gary Neville...but they should do.

Gary talking about his Dad broke my heart. A utd legend forged by an incredible family. I'm raising a drink to Neville this evening. You helped raise a wonderful footballer, and player who played a massive part in the best years of my life as a young man and now an advocate for change and positivity in every sense. Gary, i'd absolutely love to grow up to Gary Neville x

[anthonyedwards]

What he said about his dad and his kids hits hard for me. It never escapes me that my dad was there for me but will not be for my kids. He loved his grandchildren and they miss him massively, hard to deal with.

[strongboy]

Imagine starting at one of the biggest clubs in the world at 11 and then it gets serious at 14 the immense pressure that comes with that. Much respect to the work ethic that Gary has and how he manages his health through all this.

[charlieunderwood]

Absolute giant of a man, raw, honest and sheer integrity, great podcast and a great guest! Bravo both of you!

[SacstateCKI]

gary’s best attribute imo is his self awareness and honesty with himself. always a pleasure to listen to him talk

[sandytotox]

I m a Man United fan for more than 30 years. I really liked Gary as a player with a great attitude and etic when he was playing for the club. For 2, or 3 years now I also really like him with great principles, mentality, and intelligence as a person and as a top consultant. Well done for all that you have done most of your life for this club on and out the pitch Mister Gary Neville. Happy New Year 2023 to everyone and to all Manchester United fans and the whole team.

[gazoakleychef]

what a legend Gary is, seems like such a kind genuine person

[helenlouis]

Gary Neville is a class act. Very engaging, personable chap. Love his punditry. I imagine his team are very happy to work with him.

[olivermariodemeter]

I would love working for such a Man like him. He is so realistic, humble and knows how people function

[emmay]

90’s Man U was the best so so happy for a footballer to go on and do so well after the beautiful! So nice to hear how much he appreciates his parents and family. Top G.O.A.T❤

[andrewbairstow]

Started watching from the angle of being a Man Utd fan. However, this is probably the best leadership conversation I've ever heard. I've heard a lot of BS in 30 years of working . These two of them are A+.
