Gary Neville has claimed that Leeds United have shown their "desperation" with their decision to hire Sam Allardyce for the final four matches this season, after he labelled the interim manager as "hilarious" for comparing himself to Jurgen Klopp, Pep Guardiola and Mikel Arteta.
Leeds announced on Wednesday morning that Allardyce would take charge of the Whites on an interim basis for the remainder of the season. The 68-year-old has matches against Manchester City, Newcastle United, West Ham United and Tottenham to contend with in his bid to keep the club out of the bottom three.
And Neville for one was shocked when he heard the news that Allardyce had been offered the job in the first place.
