Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher disagree on Bukayo Saka and Martin Odegaard amid Haaland claim

Gary Neville and Jamie Carragher has disagreed on who should win the Premier League young player of the year award, barring Erling Haaland. The 22-year-old striker has spearheaded Manchester City's title defence this term, scoring an incredible 36 goals with fours games still left to be played.

Haaland is expected to hoover up a large majority of accolades at the end of this month, with the golden boot and PFA player of the year likely to already have his name etched into the plaques. So, to give other players in the Premier League a chance, Neville and Carragher argued who should be named young player of the season, aside from the Norway international.

Speaking on Sky Sports' Monday Night Football show, the former Liverpool defender picked Bukayo Saka. Carragher claimed that he thought Martin Odegaard was too old to be considered as a 24year-old, so he opted for the Hale End star instead.
