Gary Neville responds to Jamie Carragher and Nottingham Forest jibe

Gary Neville has responded to a Nottingham Forest fan on Twitter after it was claimed the Sky Sports pundit had only watched the Reds play against Manchester United "in the cup".

Steve Cooper's side have played the Red Devils four times this season including in Sunday's 2-0 loss at the City Ground after losing the reverse league fixture 3-0 back in December. They were also beaten in both legs of the Carabao Cup semi-final without scoring.

The Reds are now winless in their last 10 games as fears grow over their Premier League status for next season. Forest are in the bottom three on goal difference.

And on Tuesday, a Reds fan took aim at Neville on Twitter after claiming he had watched very little of Forest this season, whilst launching a stinging comparison to his fellow Sky Sports pundit Jamie Carragher.

He tweeted "He’s openly said before Sunday's game he’s only seen us play against United in the cup so how can he have an opinion. Carragher on the other hand watches as many games as he can of all teams and he’s said we have a chance due to talent we have.

To which Neville responded: "I said it was the first time I’ve seen you live this season!"

Forest are next in action on Saturday with a daunting trip to Liverpool as they look for only their second league away win of the season. Jurgen Klopp's men are unbeaten at home since losing to Leeds back in October.
