Summary

Gary Neville joins Martin Tyler to talk about Manchester City’s 1-0 win over Arsenal, which Gary says will have delighted Pep Guardiola after their difficult start to the season. Gary also discusses how Carlo Ancelotti is an example of a great coach who constantly improves players, as evidenced by Dominic Calvert-Lewin’s superb form. Gary also likes some elements of Project Big Picture and dislikes others, but says it is a positive that talk of restructuring English football is happening at all.
