As Premier League leaders Liverpool continue to purr under Arne Slot, comments made by former Manchester United defender Gary Neville are looking more and more witless by the day

The Spaniard is one of the greatest managers in the Premier League era but his club’s aura has vanished. He still has reasons to think his job is safe thoughSign up to Soccer with Jonathan Wilson here Perhaps the most extraordinary aspect of Sunday afternoon at Anfield was how ordinary it all felt. Everybody came for something apocalyptic and what they got was a league game that felt like pretty much any other league game in which Liverpool beat a side who aren’t as good as them. For a time there was a thought that Liverpool might pay for failing to take advantage of their early domination, for missing decent chances.
