“I was at a club where I don’t think there is any other club like Liverpool, in terms of how the supporters treat a manager,”
“The manager at Liverpool is like a God. If Liverpool are successful it’s always the manager.
“Right now it’s Klopp, it’s Shankly, it’s Paisley, Dalglish – all these figures. So the manager at Liverpool has so much power, I always feel.
“So those things at Liverpool when I was there never really came out against the manager because the supporters and the board would always be really with the manager.
"It wouldn’t be a case of speaking to the players, what do you think of the manager, that would never happen. These types of things never came out.”
Gary Neville made his views clear on the idea of Man United players speaking out against the club.

“The biggest betrayal you can have in a football dressing room is when players are going to the media to undermine the manager and other players in your dressing room,” he said. “Honestly, that is f****** unforgivable.”
