I think Neville goes too far the other way in commentary of trying to not come across biased. Compare it to Carragher who shrieks in excitement at Liverpool scoring an important goal. I think some of his actions with Salford also diminish a bit of the credibility of his arguments regarding ownership, giving managers time. However I don't dislike the guy at all. In fact sometimes I feel he lets himself be the figure of fun too much among the Sky panel considering he played 600 times for the most successful manager and dominant club team this country has seen. Again you hear Carragher in contrast talk as if he was Maldini.
To name someone who is disliked - Michael Owen gets invited to Liverpool club legend matches yet he is obviously seen as a traitor. In fact he is probably the only balon d'or winner in history who isn't favoured by any of the fans of any of the clubs he played for. |

I think he's a decent bloke, but his habit of getting on his soapbox is never going to endear him to people. Don't mind his punditry but when he's on co-commentary on either United or Liverpool games he boils my piss. |

I like Neville. Obviously I have tremendous respect for his playing career and I can tolerate his punditry, annoying as it has been at times. He also seems like a decent bloke - Labour guy, helping Manchester homeless etc. So I don't get the hate on here.
Ince on the other hand. Regarding the OP - I have no idea what other fans think of their former players. I can't imagine Arsenal fans were too chuffed with RvP joining us, or Leeds with Smith, Rio. I doubt they now hate them with the same venom as our online support does its former players. |

I feel the same about Shoe-Michael as Phil Leotardo did about that animal Blundetto. I’m delighted Keane sparked him, the ugly snowman-looking Judas blue @#%&!. I’m sure us losing the league in 95 was his fault somehow as well. #@&%!.
I could never hate Mark Hughes though. It would be like beefing with my own dad. He was the united-est united player imaginable in my most formative years. Leave him alone. |

Schmeichel has always come across as a great player but an utter turd of a man. Not a hero of mine but probably our best ever keeper.
Keane will be doing karaoke soon and 'pranking' people whilst his mates film him - he's like a parody of who he was. He makes me laugh though and an all time great player. Nevilles just a shit stain though. Live comms, he can't say anything positive about us, ever. A total sell out. Almost mocks us. |

Personally I love all of our legends. Can't really think of anyone who was a truly great player for us that I dislike.
Schmeichel, Keane, Neville. Absolutely incredible players, and the fact they're all different types of arsehole contributed to what made them so good. The Neville hate amongst our support is overdone IMO. He's just an opinionated workaholic who does his job very well. |

A truly great player but he let Busby and the club down and made Greenwood look like an angel. I can't imagine many fans dislike him though so maybe it's a bad call. |
