Gary Neville has taken a cheeky dig at Jamie Carragher after Pep Guardiola hit out at the Sky Sports duo.
Manchester City boss Pep Guardiola set his sights on Sky Sports pair Neville and Carragher, plus Micah Richards, after they suggested the Premier League champions had become complacent. The Spaniard laid into the trio and their lack of expertise at knowing what it takes to win four top-flight titles in a row during a six-minute rant following his team's uncharacteristic run of bad form.
"He knows how difficult it is," Guardiola said on Tuesday. "Otherwise, Gary Neville would’ve won four [consecutive] Premier Leagues in the best period of Manchester United. But he didn’t do it, you know?

"Jamie Carragher didn’t win one once. Micah Richards didn’t win four Premier Leagues in a row. Never, ever. It’s never happened. There is more chance of if it not happening than happening. Just one Treble before us. It’s so difficult to do it again and again. We don’t have what others have, who haven’t done it for many, many years."
Carragher fired back an initial response, tweeting about how Liverpool might have won one during his time at the club "if they'd been owned by a nation state and pushed the rules so far that the PL charged us 115 times". He then claimed that he was actually praising City during Sunday's broadcast.

Then it was Neville's turn, as he fired a broadside at Carragher after a not-so sincere apology to Guardiola. Speaking on TikTok, the ex-Manchester United man said: "We'll start with the fact that the old master Pep has had a go at me and Carra. Me for not winning four in a row – sorry Pep, apologies for that."
"And my friend James from Liverpool for not participating in the Premier League title celebrations at all during his career, which did make me chuckle slightly. But, the dirty little Scouse dog Carragher had to go back at Pep didn't he?
"He can't rise above it and see it as a compliment and he says to Pep that if I'd have been owned by a nation state or had 115 charges against me and pushed the rules, I'd have probably won a Premier League title.
"Carra, I reckon you'd have won a Premier League title, mate, if you hadn't kept kicking the ball in the back of your own net. That would have been a massive help to your team!"
Carragher finished his career with the second-most number of own goals in Premier League history, with seven. That ended up being seven more than the number of Prem titles he won, which stands at zero.
