Gary Neville has labelled the timing of Steven Gerrard's sacking a 'joke' while questioning why Aston Villa deemed their dismissal appropriate.
The Liverpool legend was relieved of his duties following a 3-0 defeat by Fulham on Thursday evening, which turned toxic by the end of the 90 minutes as Villa supporters lead chants demanding for the 42-year to 'get out of our club'.
Those fans inside Craven Cottage saw their wish come true as Gerrard was out of a job an hour after the full-time whistle, confirmed by a brief statement released on the club's Twitter account.
