GARY NEVILLE hit back at Sky Sports host Dave Jones after being interrupted on live TV.
The Manchester United legend was on punditry duty for Monday Night Football when he began a rant about Chelsea.

Neville had branded them the “blue, billion-pound bottlejobs” after their Carabao Cup defeat to Liverpool.
And he stuck to his guns as he delivered his thoughts before West Ham’s 4-2 Premier League win over Brentford.
However, he was not best pleased when Jones said that Neville’s words about Chelsea implied “cowardice” from Mauricio Pochettino’s men.
The former England defender immediately interrupted before saying: “I don’t think it suggests that.”
Neville and Jones continued to talk before the latter ended things.
But Neville was unimpressed at being cut short and turned his back on Jones in the studio.
The pundit’s latest comments came after Pochettino fired back at his “bottlejob” jibe.
The Chelsea boss said: “I have a good relationship with Gary and I don’t know if that’s how I can take this opinion. But I respect his opinion.

“Of course, we made a few changes with [Conor] Gallagher and [Ben] Chilwell in extra time, it is true we didn’t keep the energy of how we finished the second half.
“But for sure I feel proud. I feel proud of the players, I think they made a big effort.
“We are a young team and, there is nothing to compare with Liverpool (just) because they finished with also a few young players. I think it’s impossible (to compare the two sides).
“He (Neville) knows the dynamics are completely different. I think it’s not fair to talk in this way, if he said that.”
