Jeff Stelling’s decision to stay with Sky Sports’ Soccer Saturday programme has been met with a hugely positive reaction and the popular broadcaster proved why, after leaving his colleagues in hysterics with a hilarious dig aimed at Gary Neville involving Mikel Arteta.
Arteta’s first two seasons at Arsenal were blighted by poor form and fallouts with players such as Mesut Ozil. But after spending £150million last summer, the 39-year-old has assembled a squad that appears to be capable of challenging for a top-four finish.
The Arsenal manager was the subject of high praise from Neville after engineering a major turnaround in the club’s fortunes, having described Arsenal as "boring" only 18 months ago. And the Manchester United legend turned pundit has made a complete U-turn on his views regarding the Gunners coach, suggesting he may have reached his ceiling with the north London club.
