Neville on twitter

[jonnyg]

to be fair to him he really fired up the lads. When Jelavic kept getting caught offside he shouted at him to just give it a few yards, and when he missed a few chances he went over to say next time. Also likewise with Anichebe, when he had his hands on his hips looking disinterested Nev gave him a bollocking and he soon started running again.

jagielka also had a moment where he hoisted anichebe up and said something to him when victor was starting to sulk and moan, excellent characters in our team.

As many on here know I believe Pip to be the best leader on the field we have. On Saturday he played well. Good on yer Pip. Point they way.

If we win everyone is praising his captaining skills. If we don't win then he's the weak link.

Not to me. I have big man love for Pip.

This just in: winning causes positive feelings, research also indicates there may be some correlation between losing and negativity!
Seriously though I've always defended pip. It's more down to who'll post and who'll keep quiet rather than the same people posting differing opinions.

Still sat at the bus stop this morning with his kit bag.

Could all be smoke and mirrors to put his missus off the scent of a wild night on the tiles with some **** in that there London Town though.

One of our better performers yesterday.....credit where it's due.

he did alright, but has literally no awareness. He'd get the ball and as good as playing the way you're facing is, it's so infuriating when a little look over the shoulder a couple of times and he could of kept the pressure up by playing a ball forward or sideways instead of going back to heitinga or distin.

What Toffeemax said. Also nearly played us into trouble a few times passing to Gibson when he had a player right on top of him. Did have his good moments too.

I call it knee jerking lid which is exactly why I sit on the fence and offer no opinions. This internet is tough work.

No mate, I never.

I possibly know more about football than 99% of the Western World.

this. Despite his shortcomings we generally play better with him on the pitch and seem better organised, i.e. a true skipper.

I think Moyes feels it's as close to being on the pitch himself as he can get.Whatever people think of his ability as a player (I include myself) we are better organised and keep better shape when he plays

Spot on. I've been a critic of him because of hi lack of technical ability, but he clearly holds the side together.
