The first Monday Night outing of the former Manchester United and Liverpool player was as good as we could have hoped.
The star of Sky’s coverage last season, we wondered how Gary Neville would cope with having to share the set with former England team-mate Jamie Carragher this season.
It seems we needn’t have worried, as the two ex players brought us lots of excellent insight in their very first game, Manchester City’s shellacking of Newcastle last night.
But it was during a bit of analysis of how difficult it was to deal with Robin van Persie that was the highlight of the show.
Trying to describe how hard it was to track RVP, Neville described him as being like a burglar in your house. The rest was pure dressing room banter at its finest.
We expect Carra to have a few choice ones lined up for Gary next week.
