Arsene Wenger all praises for retiring Gary Neville
Arsenal’s manager, Arsene Wenger has praised Manchester United’s outgoing veteran http://www.senore.com/Football-soccer/Gary-Neville-c14447 and stated that the player has been the best English right-back to emerge out of the Premier League era. He added that the league would seem a little empty without
the player.
Neville recently announced his retirement from football, after some rather impressive years that he served with Manchester United. During his stay with the Red Devils, the player has won eight Premier League titles and a Champions League crown, while accumulating
eighty five caps for the English National Team.
It is no secret that Arsenal and United, don’t have the best of relationships; however, Wenger has let go of all of that and stated that Neville was a quality player, and his team will be under his influence, even if he is no longer on the pitch with them.
Wenger said, "Best English right-back in the Premier League? Certainly, if you look at his record, he has won absolutely everything and with the number of games he has played, he is without a doubt the best."
Arsenal Manager further analyzed Neville’s career at the club mentioning that despite of not being one of the most talented players in the world, the defender utilized his determination and integrity to leave a mark on the footballing world that would be
looked up to in the years to come.
The Manager then went on to add, "I respect what he has done a lot because he was certainly not one of the most talented players in the league," he said. "But what he has achieved is consistency. His record is down to intelligence and motivation - he is
an example to players who are maybe less gifted than the Ryan Giggses or the David Beckhams. He still make a fantastic career because he is intelligent and highly motivated. He deserves great credit."
At the current moment, Arsenal are trailing behind none other than United in the Premier League, with a five point difference separating the two sides. Nonetheless, Neville will no longer be a part of the race to the end of the season; however, the player
will be on the side of his childhood team that he became a part of a long time back. If United lift the trophy at the end of the season, Neville is going to be there to help spur the rest of the team, and if United exit the league without the title, the player
is still going to be around to get the team up and ready to go to next season.
